Because of the crucial role that reading plays in the learning process, a vast body of research has been conducted both in English as a second language (ESL) and English as a foreign language (EFL) contexts. Research has shown that reading comprehension is a complex, purposeful, dynamic and interactive process between the reader and the text. Readers employ different reading strategies to comprehend the text. As instructors, incorporating the instruction of reading strategies in curriculum seems to be necessary. Before teaching students effective strategies, however, instructors need to understand students’ individual reading behaviors. Moreover, with the advent of digital media and growing number of digital documents, the shift from print texts to digital texts has prompted teachers to wonder whether students use different strategies while reading texts of different formats. Also, as mobile devices have gradually gained popularity in language classes, it is urgent to learn whether reading on mobile devices demands different strategies or not. Few studies, however, have explored this fundamental issue. To respond to the urgent need to understand learners’ online reading behaviors in this digital era, and to provide some empirical evidence for EFL learners’ online reading strategy use in a mobile-assisted context, the present study is designed to explore EFL adolescents’ use of reading strategies on mobile tablets. In the present study, a qualitative approach is adopted to provide in-depth and more detailed analysis about EFL adolescents’ use of reading strategies in a mobile-assisted context. A total of twelve students are recruited from different classes within the same senior high school in eastern Taiwan as participants for the present study. During the two-month data collection process, each participant reads four articles in total. Two of the articles are shorter and easier while the other two are longer and more difficult. For the two articles at the same level of difficulty, participants read one of them alone and read the other in pairs with their peers. The videos of participants’ reading process, the think aloud data produced by participants while reading, the questionnaires filled out by participants to help reflect upon their reading strategy use after the reading tasks, and the verbatim transcribed from interviews conducted immediately after participants’ reading tasks were collected for the analysis of the present study. The result of the current study demonstrates that participants employ Global Strategy, Problem-solving Strategy, Support Strategy and Socio-affective Strategy during their reading process. Among so many strategies used, picture use and dictionary use are the most complicated ones as used by participants in the present study. For the participants in the present study, pictures are not just pictures during their reading process. Pictures might even speak louder than words because they act as a multifunctional helper to aid participants in diverse ways. Moreover, based on the analysis in the present study, it is found that the way as well as the situations where the participants use a dictionary are far more different from person to person. Participants’ use of a dictionary in the present study seems to indicate that the role of a dictionary might be a tension reliever and a tool for them to gain a sense of security during their reading process. To sum up, from the result of the current study, learners, regardless of their proficiency, are found to possess certain knowledge about reading strategies. Even the less proficient learners employ certain reading strategies when they read. Moreover, when the same strategies are employed by different students, the context or the way those strategies are used might vary. Such results provide those who are interested in this field some pedagogical implications as well as suggestions for future research.閱讀策略行動輔助學習EFL閱讀線上閱讀reading strategymobile-assisted learningEFL readingonline reading
