Resumen
This research examined how four different animated pedagogical agent implementations, which focus on perceptual and inquiry arousal conditions of attention as defined in Keller’s ARCS model of motivational design (Keller, 2009), impact English language learners' situational interest, cognitive load, and reading comprehension in online readings tasks. Animated pedagogical agents (APA) are computer characters embodied with speech, gestures, or movement (Sweller, Ayres, & Kalyuga, 2011), which according to cognitive-affective theory of learning with media (CATLM; Moreno, 2005; Moreno & Mayer, 2007), can provide a mechanism for triggering situational interest in reading materials through different arousal conditions. In this study, perceptual arousal and inquiry arousal were implemented in two different levels within four APA conditions: high perceptual arousal and high inquiry arousal condition, high perceptual and low inquiry condition, low perceptual and high inquiry condition, and low perceptual and low inquiry condition. Study outcome variables included situational interest, cognitive load, and reading comprehension. Situational interest is a psychological construct defined as a specific person-to-topic relationship, which is triggered by the instructional environment during the first stage of a 4-phase model of interest development (Hidi & Renninger, 2006; Krapp, 2002). In this study, situational interest was operationally defined as a self-reported degree of attention and an affective reaction to environmental stimuli; situational interest was measured using a 6-item, 5-point Likert-scale instrument adopted from Rotgans and Schmidt’s (2011b) experiment. Cognitive load is defined in cognitive load theory as a mental effort in working memory, part of which may contribute to formation of mental schemas in long-vi term memory structures (Sweller et al., 1998, p. 259). In this study, three types of cognitive load were examined, including extraneous cognitive load, intrinsic cognitive load, and germane cognitive load. The three types of cognitive load were operationally defined as self-reported complexity, clarity and effectiveness of the presentation, and increase in knowledge and understanding of a topic. The three types of cognitive load were measured using a 10-item, 11-point Likert-scale questionnaire, which was validated in prior studies (Leppink et al., 2013). The last outcome variable, reading comprehension, was measured using multiple-choice recall and understanding questions included with each original text passage. This study did not find any evidence of perceptual or inquiry arousal effects on situational interest, however, disordinal interaction between perceptual and inquiry arousal levels on germane cognitive load was found. Also, a main effect of inquiry arousal levels on reading comprehension was discovered.

Texto completo
Resumen
For most English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners, both reading and comprehension skills are challenging to acquire. EFL students find reading challenging due to their inability to comprehend and interpret text information, which may lead, at times, to demotivation and loss of interest. The current study intends to explore how Saudi EFL learners may better tackle reading comprehension challenges by examining the utilization of metacognitive reading strategies through discussion and extensive collaborative learning activities within a multimedia e-book dialogic environment. Accordingly, the study investigates the impact of teaching metacognitive strategy-based discussion and collaborative learning on students’ application of the reading strategies. It also investigates the influence of metacognitive strategy-based discussion (MS), collaborative learning (CL), and the combined use of MS and CL on EFL learners’ reading comprehension. Since an e-book dialogic environment epitomizes the main tenets of this study, the study equally explores how Saudi EFL learners perceive the effectiveness of the multimedia e-book environment on their overall reading comprehension. The participants were 115 Saudi female students at the intermediate college-level from the English Language Institution at a Saudi University. A mixed-methods quantitative-qualitative approach was employed. The findings showed impactful results for learners’ application of the reading strategies after being exposed to the treatment. Significant results were found on the effect of the metacognitive strategy-based discussion on learners’ reading comprehension. Collaborative learning showed a statistically significant influence on participants’ reading comprehension. However, the results did not show interaction between the MS and CL on students’ reading comprehension. Although teaching the MS with CL showed positive impact on students’ final reading scores, more research is needed to prove the efficacy of teaching MS with CL. The qualitative findings revealed that the MS-based discussion and collaborative learning was beneficial for EFL students in improving focus on the text, use of strategies, comprehension and reading performance. Participants evaluated the multimedia e-book features of discussion board, videos, glossing and illustrations based on their effectiveness. Both advantages and disadvantage of the e-book environment are addressed and compared to the traditional face-to-face classroom. The study concludes with pedagogical implications for EFL instructors, learners, and future researchers, and also provides limitations and recommended future research recommendations.

Texto completo
Resumen
This study is an evaluation of online annotated readers developed for first grade students enrolled in Chinese immersion. The electronic readers were created to provide additional input to immersion students, who had little time in class for Chinese character reinforcement. The students accessed online readers from their homes and took assessments before and after each reader to test for improved character comprehension. In addition, students were divided into treatment and control groups. The treatment group had annotated electronic readers with audio and games. Conversely, the control group did not have annotations but audio was included. Results demonstrate a significant difference between preliminary and post-assessments, suggesting that students comprehended more characters after reading. No significant differences were detected between the control (non-annotated) and treatment (annotated) groups. Additional data collected from parent surveys provide useful demographics about subjects' socio-cultural and language variables as well as highlight parental desires for more support and help-aides. Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) in relationship to young immersion students learning Chinese is also discussed. Results suggest that online annotated readers can be an important resource for students who have limited instructional time in the classroom and little opportunity to receive help at home.

Resumen
This study examined the effects and usefulness of blending asynchronous online discussion (AOD) with face-to-face (FTF) reading classes on first-year Saudi Arabian secondary school students’ Arabic reading comprehension, participation, interaction and learning processes. A sequential mixed methodology approach was applied, including quantitative and qualitative research data collection and analysis. Two teachers and 64 students participated. The first part involved a quasi-experimental quantitative design with two groups to examine the impact of BL on students’ comprehension scores. In the control group, 32 students participated in traditional FTF learning only. In contrast, 32 students in the experimental group participated in both FTF and AOD learning via 12 online group discussions over six weeks. Both groups were given the same pre-and post-comprehension tests. The second part involved qualitative semi-structured interviews with 16 students from the experimental, blended group and the two teachers. The third part involved quantitative and qualitative analysis of the AODs. The main finding of this study was that students in the experimental BL group did not improve significantly more than those in the FTF group in overall comprehension post-test scores, or literal, inferential and evaluative comprehension sub-levels. However a comparison within groups revealed that the experimental BL group demonstrated a significant improvement in test scores for overall and all sub-levels of comprehension while students in the control, FTF group only improved significantly in overall and literal comprehension. Overall, this study concludes that although there was no significant effect of blending AOD with FTF reading classes in terms of students’ reading comprehension compared to FTF learning, the integration of AOD design has the potential to benefit students’ participation, learning about comprehension strategies, and interaction. However, there were some challenges that must be considered. A number of recommendations are provided for designing effective AOD activities to support teaching and learning in Arabic reading classes.

Studies regarding online annotation suggest that incorporating with online annotation exercises in reading instruction can improve students’ reading comprehension. However, little research has addressed how students used online annotations to support their reading comprehension. Therefore, this study adopted Reciprocal Teaching (RT) as instructional framework to explore the reading processes of how students used online annotations to support their reading comprehension, and the difficulties and solutions the students had in using online annotations to attain reading comprehension. 54 non-English major college students from different departments in a technological university were recruited as participants to experience a 14-week online annotation exercise with RT instructional design. The collected data included the students’ scores from pre- and post-tests, their trace results from Google Docs, and the completed open-ended questionnaire. Pre- and post- tests were adopted to examine the effectiveness of online annotations in enhancing students’ reading comprehension. Students’ trace results from Google Docs and the open-ended questionnaire were used to analyze the processes of how students used online annotations to support their reading comprehension, and to explore the difficulties and solutions the students had in using online annotations to attain reading comprehension. Results of this study first revealed that college students enhanced their reading comprehension after using online annotations in RT. Second, the students who made more progress and less progress in reading comprehension demonstrated similar reading patterns while reading with online annotations, in terms of the predicting, clarifying, questioning and summarizing tasks. The major differences between the students who made more progress and less progress are identified. Those who made more progress were students who frequently reviewed and revised their previously annotated predictions, vocabulary, main ideas and summaries. Moreover, the students who made more progress were more active in viewing peers’ annotations as well as providing comments on their annotations. Third, the results of the open-ended questionnaire showed that most of the students had difficulties in the predicting and summarizing tasks, due to their insufficient vocabulary sizes that prevent them from making a prediction, and the failure to identifying important sentences and the retrieval of information that stop them from constructing a summary. Their solutions mainly asked the teacher or their peers for help through the online chat room, viewed peers’ annotations, or searched for online dictionary or resources, such as Wikipedia to solve their difficulties.

This research aims to investigate the effects of reciprocal teaching on students’ comprehension of reading English. Reciprocal teaching is an instructional activity that takes place in the form of a dialogue between teachers and students. The dialogue is structured by four strategies: predicting, clarifying, question generating and summarizing. A reciprocal teaching & learning online system is proposed as a means to engage students in practicing these four strategies. With in-class instruction and online practice in an empirical experiment, students seemed to develop their metacognitive skills. Based on the findings, some implications for reading instruction and future revision of the online system are suggested.

Studies on reading strategies have long been considered important in L2 reading instruction; however, there have been relatively few studies focusing on the use of online support reading strategies and the effectiveness of these strategies on comprehension among readers with variety in proficiency. As an application for computer-assisted language learning (CALL), Online Reading Annotation System (ORAS) offers a context for collaborative learning for online reading. Through this system, learners can make online annotations for the same reading texts and share these annotations with other users. The present study has three purposes: (1) investigating the use of online support reading strategies by EFL proficient and less proficient readers, (2) delving into the impact of use of online support reading strategies on reading comprehension, and (3) exploring readers’ perceptions of the effectiveness of the support reading strategies for online reading. The study involved 50 participants drawn by convenience sampling from five colleges. Through the placement test, the high-intermediate GEPT reading test, they were divided into High proficiency group and Low proficiency group, whose heterogeneity was confirmed by the results of the independent t-test. They were required to read two online passages, take reading comprehension tests, as well as complete a survey Twenty-five volunteer participants attended an interview within one week after their accomplishment of the reading tasks. To collect data for readers’ use of online support reading strategies, a tracking system was applied to record each participant’s browsing behavior in accomplishing each reading task. The data of both groups’ strategy use were collected and analyzed with descriptive statistics and independent sample t-test. Pearson correlations were calculated to gauge the relationship between both groups’ use of online support reading strategies and their reading comprehension. Eventually, to interpret participants’ feedback on their perceptions to the effectiveness of these strategies from the post-survey and interview, both descriptive statistics and perception analysis were adopted. The results concerning both groups’ strategy use revealed that Dictionary strategy constituted the predominant proportion in their application of online support reading strategies, and that Question strategy was the least used one. With regard to the impact of strategy use on reading, the results showed that there are no statistically significant positive correlation between them. However, the findings of independent sample t-test presented that Low proficiency group’s need of online support reading strategies significantly exceeds that of High proficiency group. Concerning the effectiveness of the online support reading strategies, the findings of the survey and interview revealed most participants’ positive perceptions of strategy use for their online reading. They even showed their support towards the incorporation of these support reading strategy functions with a website into their English learning programs. The findings of the study revealed significant pedagogical implications. To begin with, before learners’ engagement in online reading, teachers should equip them with instruction of online reading strategies to facilitate their comprehension. Second, with the assistance of online support reading strategies, the online reading website could be a potential platform, where the teaching-learning effect could be maximized. For future research, several suggestions are also made based on the results of this study. First, class setting could be adopted so that all the participants will be allowed to share online annotations simultaneously. Next, the length of study could be expanded; therefore, the results of the correlation between strategy use and reading comprehension would be more significant and meaningful. Last, incorporation of other reading strategies, such as global strategies and problem-solving strategies, could be carried out. Consequently, the exploration of the effect of strategy use on reading performance would be more comprehensive.

This study examined the effects of the number of columns and type of justification on reading speed, reading comprehension, and satisfaction for online text. Sixty-six participants read a single narrative passage of approximately 2200 words presented in one of six conditions: one, two, or three columns and full- or left-justification. Results from this study found that reading speeds for the two-column full-justified condition and one-column left-justified condition were fastest overall. Fast readers performed best under the two-column full-justified condition, and slow readers performed best under the one-column left-justified condition. No significant differences were found for overall satisfaction or comprehension. Further studies are needed to examine the importance of individual difference in reading ability on online reading performance.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of annotations and advance organizers on EFL learners’ vocabulary acquisition and reading comprehension. A 3×3 between-subject factorial design is used. Under the CALL setting, two independent variables are involved: annotations (online dictionary, margin and pop-up) and advance organizers (none, descriptive and question). Seventy two English-majored students, based on their English scores, were systematically assigned to nine groups. The instruments used for data collection were vocabulary tests (word recognition and application), reading comprehension tests (literal comprehension, interpretive comprehension) and questionnaires. To answer the research questions, two-way analysis of variance and the goodness of fit test were conducted. It is found that students in the margin annotation and the pop-up annotation group outperformed the online dictionary group in vocabulary tests but not in the reading comprehension test. This result suggested that EFL learners’ vocabulary acquisition was facilitated by margin and pop-up annotations more than by an online dictionary. However, when compared with an online dictionary, annotation did not enhance students’ reading comprehension. Furthermore, there was no significant difference among none, descriptive and question advance organizer groups regarding their reading comprehension. The results indicated that reading comprehension might be hindered by advance organizers. Nevertheless, most of the students hold positive attitudes toward the use of web-based instruction (online annotations and advance organizers) for vocabulary acquisition and article comprehension. Based on the findings, some pedagogical implications and design of web-based annotations and advance organizers were derived for future relevant studies of second language learning and strategy.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the impact of online reading on geographically disadvantaged six graders’ reading comprehension. The researcher built an online reading website on the course management system, Moodle. The subjects were 11 six graders from an elementary school, New Taipei City. During the one month period, the subjects participated in the online reading activities by reading articles, including 10 narratives and 10 essays, and responding to 8 multiple choice items for each article. The majority of the reading content was the sample articles from PIRLS reading assessment, the materials from New Taipei City elementary school teachers’ professional development in literacy and reading, and the content created by the researcher. Additionally, the multiple choice items were categorized based on the four types of PIRLS’s comprehension processes, which are (1)focus on and retrieve explicitly stated information, (2)make straightforward inferences, (3)interpret and integrate ideas and information, and (4)examine and evaluate content, language, and textual elements. The researcher analyzed the relationships between the subjects’ reading comprehension and the following factors: genders, socioeconomic backgrounds, and students’ Chinese language competencies. The results were summarized below. 1. Students showed better comprehension in narratives than in essays 2. Girls performed better comprehension than boys in both narratives and essays 3. Students with low socioeconomic backgrounds showed a significant improvement in reading comprehension 4. Students from the low Chinese language competency group showed more improvement than students from the high Chinese language competency group Based on the findings, the feasibility of implementing online reading in geographically disadvantaged schools for enhancing students’ reading comprehension was discussed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of different types of online book-reviews community for the students' reading motivation and reading comprehension. 49 students enrolled in the Chinese course from a vocational high school, and they were divided into general group and video group. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were applied for data analysis. The quantitative methods were used to evaluate the reliability of the reading motivation questionnaires and reading comprehension exam, while the content analysis was used to analyze the effects of various feedback types that students received from peers. The results indicated that reading motivation and reading comprehension of both group significantly improved after making book reviews. It was noted that “intrinsic motivation" and "reflection and evaluation" of video group were better the general group. On the other hand, the general group tended to give more cognitive feedback, and video group tended to give more affective feedback. Furthermore, students received affective feedback might increase their reading “Recognition”, but it might decrease “intrinsic motivation.” And students received cognitive feedback might increase their “Curiosity” and “Challenge”. However, students received too much corrective feedback might decrease their “Recognition”. In addition, students’ affective feedback and cognitive feedback were not significantly correlated with reading comprehension. Finally, implications and suggestions were both provided for teaching and future research.

Studies concerning online question generation suggested that question generation improved students'' reading comprehension. However, rare studies addressed how students generate questions from a reading text and how question generation processes enhance students'' reading comprehension. Therefore, the study aimed to explore what online question generation processes enhance students'' reading comprehension and how students perceive the activities involved in online question generation. 19 non-English major college students from different departments in a technological university were recruited as participants. The collected data involved the students'' scores of the pre- and post-tests, learning action logs in the online question generation system, the interview transcripts and a five-point Likert questionnaire. Pre- and post-tests were adopted to examine the effectiveness of online question generation in enhancing students'' reading comprehension. Students'' learning action logs in the online question generation system and interview transcripts were used to analyze students'' online question generation processes. The questionnaire was conducted to explore participants'' perceptions toward online question generation. Results of this study first indicated that college students displayed improvements in reading comprehension after the intervention of online question generation. Second, students who made progress in reading comprehension demonstrated similar learning behaviors in question generation processes in terms of the organization, composing, and peer assessment modules. In the organization module, the students who made reading progress had a higher tendency to add new vocabulary into their vocabulary databases and to edit their previously organized vocabulary, sentences, main ideas and summaries as well. In the composing module, the students who made progress had a higher frequency in reviewing the previously organized vocabulary, sentences, main ideas and summaries to generate questions. In the peer assessment module, students were also much more active in viewing peers'' test items, providing comments on peers'' questions, reading and responding to peers'' comments. Third, the results of the questionnaire showed that 77% of the students agreed the learning actions taken in the organization module, including vocabulary, sentences, main ideas and summaries were helpful for them to generate questions. In the composing module, 70% of the students found that the actions such as "reviewing" and "editing" were helpful for them to generate questions. In the peer assessment module, 82% of the students thought it was helpful for them to generate questions by going through the processes of commenting on their peers'' questions and responding to their peers'' comments on their own questions.

The bulk of L2 reading research has shown that prospective readers use various reading strategies to facilitate comprehension, but relatively few studies have centered on online reading strategy use and its effects on the reading comprehension of students with different language proficiencies. This study aimed to investigate EFL learners’ online reading strategies, to study the effects of strategy use on comprehension, and to evaluate a web-based reading program, English Reading Online, which was constructed to fulfill the first two purposes of this study. The design of this online reading program echoed reading strategy patterns found in L2 reading literature and the action of clicking on a certain strategy function button online was traced to reflect a reader’s particular strategy use. There were 15 strategy buttons: Global strategy design provided students with previews, keywords, and outlines of the reading texts as well as chances to make predictions. Problem-solving strategy mechanisms included online summary services, reading-rate training, text-to-speech software, and semantic mapping tools. Support strategy functions were provided by online dictionaries, online grammar resources, an online translation mechanism, highlighting tools, and individualized electronic notebooks. Socio-affective strategies were displayed by online chatrooms, discussion boards, email services, and music boxes. Thirty Applied English majors, divided into a High group and a Low group based on their proficiency levels, were asked to read a total of four authentic online texts of two difficulty levels. They also completed a post-task survey, wrote written recalls, and attended interview sessions after reading. Each participant’s navigation path in doing these four reading tasks was tracked by the computer system to collect their pre-defined strategies; each navigation path was also videotaped by a screen-capturing software to collect newly emerging strategy patterns. Strategy use data was analyzed by the Chi-square test to examine if strategy use was influenced by language proficiency, the text topic, and the text difficulty levels. Written recalls were scored according to two categories: main ideas and details. The relationship between students’ strategy use and comprehension was computed using multiple regression. The post-task survey on program feedback was analyzed by descriptive statistics. Finally, qualitative investigations of four case studies gathered from videotaping and interviews were used to supplement the quantitative data mentioned above. The results showed that due to learners’ concern of convenience and immediacy, Support strategies made up the overwhelming proportion of strategy use and Problem-solving strategies were used the least. Other strategies emerging from qualitative investigation—including Navigating strategies, Information gathering strategies, Interface changing strategies, and Usability problem reporting strategies—assisted readers in navigating online texts smoothly, finding relevant information to build up background knowledge, establishing a personal environment to facilitate online reading, and making suggestions for user-friendly web design. Additionally, four factors that influenced online reading strategy use were language proficiency, the text topic and difficulty level, computer skills, and background knowledge. In relating strategy use with comprehension, the use of Support strategies dominated the strategy use and contributed to most of the comprehension gains, but an exclusive dependence on Support strategies did not successfully predict the increase in scores on main ideas and details when the students were reading more challenging texts. It was the use of Global strategies that significantly contributed to better comprehension. The effects of Global strategies were most evident among the Low group, who often confined themselves to the use of Support strategies and Socio-affective strategies in reading. Finally, students provided positive feedback on this program in terms of the design of the strategy tools, interface design, and learning effects. They also welcomed the possibility of including online reading in the existing curriculum. Findings of this study bear important pedagogical implications. First, strategy instruction needs to be integrated into reading classes. Online reading strategies about how to find and synthesize information and how to increase social interaction need to be addressed. Second, Global strategies, which aided low achievers’ comprehension of difficult texts, should be encouraged. Third, more personalized features and more choices for text selection should be included in the future program design.

The bulk L2 reading research has revealed that prospective readers use numerous reading strategies to facilitate comprehension, but relatively few studies have centered on online supportive reading strategy use and its effects on reading comprehension. Multi-User Online Annotation is one of the applications of computer-mediated-communication (CMC), which offers interpersonal communication among groups of readers. It allows multiple readers to annotate the same electronic text for the purpose of knowledge sharing and collaborative learning. This study has four aims: (1) exploring EFL learners’ online supportive reading strategy use, (2) examining the effects of supportive strategy use on comprehension, (3) investigating the relationship between supportive reading strategy use and comprehension, and (4) evaluating the effectiveness of an online supportive reading environment, Multi-User Online Annotation System (Yeh, 2004; Lo et al., 2005) on reading comprehension. The study employed a pretest-posttest control group design with random assignment. Sixty-five participants divided into the experiment and the control group, were asked to read two online reading texts, did immediate recall protocols, and completed the post-survey. Each participant’s browsing behavior in completing the two reading tasks was recorded by the computer system to collect their pre-defined supportive reading strategies. Supportive strategy use data was further analyzed with descriptive statistics. The independent t-tests were used to compare the reading comprehension performance between the experiment and control groups on immediate written recall protocols. The relationships between frequency use of supportive reading strategies and reading comprehension were explored by person correlations. Finally, the feedback from the post- survey was analyzed by descriptive statistics. The results revealed that due to the convenience and immediacy, Dictionary strategy made up the overwhelming proportion of strategy use and Search strategy was used the least. In regard to supportive reading strategy use on comprehension, the experiment group outperformed control group in the recall scores and total idea units recalled with more significance. There were positive significant correlations between the frequency use of supportive strategies and comprehension, especially on Dictionary strategy. In relation to the feedback from the post-survey, overall participants held positive attitudes toward the effectiveness of the supportive reading strategy buttons, the learning effects, and the interface design of Multi-User Online Annotation System. They would even recommend the system to their friends. Findings of this study offer important pedagogical implications and suggestions for future research. First, it is essential to incorporate strategy instructions into the reading classes. Teachers need to incorporate strategy awareness training before engaging students in online tasks for promoting their online reading performance. Second, the sole dependence on supportive strategies mechanism does not successfully explain the increase of reading ability. For the future study, more kinds of reading strategies, such as global strategy, problem-solving strategy and socio-affective strategy should be included in order to investigate the influence of different strategy use on comprehension.

This mixed methods study aims to investigate the effects of an English online extensive reading program on EFL junior high school students‟ reading comprehension, reading attitude, and their perception toward the workshop approach oriented English online extensive reading program. The study was conducted in a six-year high school in a city located in the east part of Taiwan. Thirty-six eighth graders participated in an English online extensive reading program for ten weeks designed by the researcher. A workshop approach was employed to conduct the English online extensive reading program. In addition to a pre-test and post-test administered in the first and the last weeks, there were eight reading workshops given from week two to week eight. Each reading workshop lasted for 100 minutes and contained seven components: a minilesson, an independent reading, an individual conference, a writing response, a group discussion, a group presentation, and a reflection. The data were collected from a pre- and a post-reading comprehension test, Teacher's notes taken during individual conferences, students' reading worksheets, and the students' perception questionnaire. The results showed that reading English extensively online did make a positive difference on EFL junior high school students‟ reading comprehension and attitudes, especially in boys‟ reading comprehension. Moreover, the students had a positive perception of the workshop approach of the English online extensive reading program because they could learn useful reading skills and share what they read with their peers. It is suggested that EFL teachers employ the workshop approach to extablish English online extensive reading programs in schools to enhance EFL students‟ reading comprehension and attitudes.

Resumen
This quantitative study explored the effect of intervention lessons on online reading skills in fifth grade classrooms. First, it sought to examine the relationships among demographic variables including gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status and self-reported Internet use and Internet ability. Second, this study was designed to investigate which variables best predict performance on a measure of online reading. Third, the effect of lessons designed to improve online reading comprehension was explored to determine the efficacy of targeted classroom-based instruction on learned skills. Three theoretical frameworks underpinned this study: 1) a new literacies framework (Leu, Kinzer, Coiro, & Cammack, 2004), 2) transactional model (Rosenblatt, 1978), and 3) socioconitive model (Ruddell & Unrau, 2004a). The study was conducted in a Midwestern, suburban school over a 12-week time period with 443 fifth grade students. The repeated measures quasi-experimental research design allowed a quantitative investigation of online reading comprehension instruction to provide a reliable and valid assessment of the impact of online reading comprehension instruction on changes in student performance on an established measure of online reading comprehension. Additional attention to common variables known to influence outcomes in reading and technology performance (e.g., demographic variables, prior reading achievement scores) strengthened the design by allowing a more refined analysis of the isolated impact from the instructional activities. A regression analysis revealed prior achievement on norm-referenced measures of English/Language Arts as well as reported Internet use accounted for a significant amount of variance on online reading comprehension performance. Statistical analyses revealed significant differences between the experimental and control groups in online reading performance growth. Results from the subskill analysis show students in the experimental group demonstrated significant improvement over the control group on two of the three subskills (locating and synthesizing). No significant differences in group growth were observed for the Web evaluation task. Findings from this study indicate teachers varying in experience and Internet familiarity can effectively teach online reading in a classroom setting, and that students who received this instruction developed these skills at a greater rate. This work can inform future efforts as to how to best teach the skills and strategies of online reading.

This continuous study reports on the modification in the computer system of referring to explore the development of EFL college students’ referential identification and resolution in reading. A total number of 92 students from three reading classes were recruited as the participants and required to follow the steps in reading an online text: (1) to identify references, (2) to draw the relationships between the references, (3) to answer reading comprehension test items, and (4) to fill in an open-ended questionnaire. The collected data were grouped into two categories for further analysis: reading product and reading process. Reading product was analyzed by statistical methods, such as Pearson Correlation Coefficient, one-way ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis. Reading process was analyzed by content analysis and constant comparative method. Results show that referential identification and resolution can account for 95% of the variation in reading comprehension. The more the readers practiced in referential identification and resolution, the higher score they obtained in the reading comprehension test. The readers were further found with significant differences in the development of referential identification and resolution. The more-proficient readers were good at integrating references in different parts of a text to correct subjects and created a coherent mental map as a network when reading the four online texts. On the contrary, the average and the less-proficient readers initially did not integrate any reference when reading the first text. They began to link some references in a successive way in the second text. In the third and final texts, they not only integrated different references to a correct subject but also made these references mutually linked. The feedback and scaffolding contributed to the development of the readers’ integrative skill in referential identification and resolution. The scaffolding demonstrated to the readers the employment of the referring strategy and assisted them to complete the online referring tasks. The feedback facilitates them to overcome their reading difficulties and confirm their answers in the referring tasks. Readers also cultivated a positive attitude toward the tasks of referential identification and resolution, and the computer system.

Studies concerning summary strategy have indicated the positive effects on improving students’ reading comprehension; yet, few studies have revealed students’ reading processes while using summary strategy and these studies could not explain why and what key factors are involved in applying summary strategy to enhance students’ reading comprehension. This study aims to explore students’ reading progress and processes, students’ performance on their writing summaries, and students’ perceptions after using summary strategy in an online learning system. 20 non-English major college students in a remedial course were recruited as participants to receive an 11-week remedial English reading course. The collected data included the students’ pre- and post- tests, the students’ reading action logs, the interview transcripts and a five-point Likert questionnaire. The results of the students’ pre- and post- tests were testified through SPSS 19 version to examine the effectiveness of adopting summary strategy to enhance reading comprehension. The students’ summaries were scored based on the method of summary efficiency. Content analysis was adopted to analyze the students’ interview transcripts and action logs to explore the students’ reading processes and perceptions. After 11-week intervention of summary strategy, the results of the pre- and post- tests first indicated that the students have made significant improvement in their reading comprehension. Second, the results showed that students made a progress in their summary efficiency and made improvement in their summaries. Third, the results showed that the students with improvement in their reading comprehension had undergone similar reading processes while applying summary strategy. The students, who made improvement, had more engagement in the process of Organization that included the learning activity of identifying the main ideas in each paragraph and had higher tendency to retrieve information while they were identifying the main ideas in each paragraph and constructing the summary of a text than those who made no progress. In addition, the students with reading improvement underwent the S-O-I reading process completely and interactively. They also tended to revise their summaries after viewing others’ feedback on their summaries. Finally, the results of the questionnaire showed that 95% of the students agreed that the summary strategy helped them enhance their reading comprehension.

The analysis of the transformations occurring in the world of reading and the comparison between traditional reading and online reading are the central themes of this research. If, in a certain historical and cultural season, reading hypertext has seemed to correspond to a more active role of the reader, to his release from the "constraints" presumably cumbersome linear texts, a growing body of empirical data found that the hypertextual formats, often results in disorientation and cognitive overload. The latest studies on the online reading comprehension confirm these early findings and reveal further complexities related to the typical features of the Web. By combining a thoughtful intent and a more operational way, this analysis focuses on the processes involved in the new form of online reading, coming finally to explore the effects of using a metacognitive technique (Think Aloud) to teach to move strategically on the Internet. In many respects, the results of this study have confirmed the validity of a program for online reading teaching once the young reader has passed the stage of '"learning to read" and has made entry into the the "reading to learn." It is, now, to further expand this knowledge base.L'analisi delle trasformazioni intervenute nell'universo del leggere e il confronto fra lettura tradizionale e lettura del corpus ipertestuale online sono i temi centrali di questa ricerca. Se, in una certa stagione storico-culturale, la lettura di ipertesti è sembrata corrispondere a un ruolo più attivo del lettore, a una sua liberazione dai “vincoli” presumibilmente ingombranti dei testi lineari, una mole crescente di dati empirici ha rilevato che l'organizzazione in forma reticolare, spesso, si traduce in disorientamento e maggiore impegno cognitivo. Gli studi più recenti sulla comprensione della lettura dei testi online confermano tali prime evidenze e svelano ulteriori complessità legate alle tipicità del Web. Abbinando un intento teorico e riflessivo a un proposito di carattere più operativo, l'analisi si sofferma sui processi implicati nella nuova forma di lettura, giungendo infine a esplorare gli effetti dell'uso di una tecnica metacognitiva per insegnare a muoversi strategicamente in rete. Gli esiti di questo studio hanno, per molti aspetti, confermato la validità di un percorso che prevede un insegnamento all'elaborazione dei testi online una volta che il giovane lettore ha superato la fase dell'“imparare a leggere” e ha fatto ingresso in quella del “leggere per imparare”. Si tratta, adesso, di ampliare ulteriormente questa base conoscitiva.

Resumen
The efficacy of reading interventions on elementary students’ decoding and word reading skills and reading comprehension has been well-established in the literature. The efficacy of online reading interventions, however, is unknown. This study adapted an in-person reading fluency intervention for synchronous online implementation and examined its effectiveness in a single-case research design. Three struggling readers in grades 2 and 3 participated in an 8-week online reading intervention. Pre-test, post-test, and progress monitoring data were collected and analyzed. The results indicated that the online RAVE-O intervention was effective in increasing the participants’ accurate word reading and decoding skills as well as their reading comprehension. The adapted intervention was implemented with fidelity and maintained its efficacy in an online setting. For struggling readers who cannot access intervention resources in person, an online reading intervention such as the one used in this study could have a positive effect on their reading skills.

Resumen
The aim of this degree thesis is to see what research says about the use of computer and video games to support upper elementary pupils’ development in English reading comprehension in Swedish schools. Other goals are to see how online and offline gaming can be integrated in the Swedish schools and what attitudes teachers have towards gaming. The method used is a systematic literature review and the purpose is to analyze chosen articles and to find relevant content that answers the research questions. Five articles were chosen from different databases and were systematically analyzed in this thesis. The results show that online gaming as support for education can be rewarding for some upper elementary pupils in English learning. However, in English reading comprehension there is not much research found which means that more research needs to be made within this area. Moreover, involving online gaming in English language learning seems to be a challenge for teachers mostly because of their lack of knowledge about the subject, even though they are positive to gaming. The lack of knowledge about the subject could be altered with more education and courses in the area.

The purpose of this study was to discuss the impact of online dynamic assessment of reading comprehension on science on fifth and sixth grade elementary school students in a remote mountain region. The quasi-experimental design method was employed in this research. The research subjects are from two schools in the remote mountain area in Kaohsiung. All together, there are the 130 students from 6 classes, of fifth to sixth grade, participating in this study. The subjects were divided into two experimental groups, the online dynamic assessment teaching (reading-while-listening group and silent reading group) and a control group using traditional paper assessment. This study explores the effects and the differences on students’ scientific reading comprehension and science reading awareness with different types of groups. This study also discusses the effects of the intervention of the experimental teaching scientific reading comprehension on student’s scientific reading comprehension. Furthermore, to explore the relevant factors those influence the online dynamic assessment learning. Findings and conclusions of this study are as follows: 1. Scientific reading comprehension of both experimental groups and control groups did not improve after the intervention in the teaching experiment. However, experimental groups’ performance on science reading comprehension is better than the traditional paper test. There is no difference in the scores among two experimental groups and the control group with the intervention of teaching experiment dynamic assessment for reading comprehension on science. 2. There is a growth trend in scientific reading comprehension among all the experimental groups and the control group with the intervention of dynamic assessment process involving in teaching experiment. 3. Scientific reading awareness of both experimental groups and control groups did not improve after the intervention in the teaching experiment. However, for both experimental groups, the performance of scientific reading awareness is better than the tradition written test. There is no divergence in scientific reading awareness between two experimental groups. However, there is a difference between both experimental groups and the control group. 4. There is a Chinese growth correlation of scientific reading comprehension between the experimental group and the control group. In addition, the study indicates a correlation between students’ science performance and the growth of scientific reading comprehension in both experimental groups; however, the control group does not reveal such correlation. Finally, according to the conclusion of this study, researchers also give suggestions and make specific recommendations for future teaching and follow-up research.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of an on-line summary-writing program, WriteToLearn, on EFL freshmen’s improvement in reading comprehension, vocabulary knowledge and summary-writing. This study also aims at investigating if the effectiveness of WriteToLearn program is different on EFL learners at two different reading proficiency level. The participants, 33 EFL freshman English majors in central Taiwan, were grouped into a high-level reading group or a low-level reading group. The two groups received the WriteToLearn summary-writing training for 14 weeks. Their pretest and posttest scores of reading-comprehension test and Vocabulary Knowledge Test were collected and analyzed. Their summary-writing performance during the training session was recorded and evaluated. The results showed that upon the completion of the WriteToLearn summary-writing training, the low-level reading group had a significant improvement in reading comprehension while the high-level reading group improved little. Both groups improved significantly in vocabulary knowledge. As for summary-writing, both groups demonstrated in their summaries lower percentage of spelling mistakes and repeated content. Both groups showed a tendency of lower percentage of copying, but their ability of excluding unimportant content fluctuated throughout the training. Pedagogical implications are discussed and research suggestions are offered.
