Abstract

This study investigated the strategies Iranian high-school students use to search the INTERNET and the role of students’ GENDER and ENGLISH reading comprehension proficiency in the use of these strategies. The population of the research included all male and female students who were studying in public high-schools of Gorgan in the academic year 2011-12. One hundred and ninety high-school students were selected based on convenience sampling among the population who used the INTERNET for their studying. They filled in the Online INFORMATION SEARCHING STRATEGY Inventory (OISSI) with three components including procedural, behavioral and metacognitive strategies (tool reliability=0.75). They also took part in the reading section of Cambridge University’s Key ENGLISH Test (tool reliability=0.71). The data was analyzed using Multiple Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) and Correlation Coefficient. The result of the study showed the influence of GENDER on behavioral strategies, indicating that boys used this STRATEGY more frequently than girls. However, GENDER did not show any effect on using procedural and metacognitive strategies. Further, evidence indicated a positive and significant relationship between ENGLISH READING PROFICIENCY and online searching strategies. Besides, regarding INFORMATION SEARCHING STRATEGY inventory sub-scales, positive and significant relationship was found between ENGLISH READING PROFICIENCY and metacognitive and procedural strategies. In general and two types of strategies, that is, metacognitive and procedural strategies. However, ENGLISH reading was not found to be significantly related to using behavioral strategies to search the INTERNET.
