Abstract
The research aimed at investigating the effect of a web-based self regulated learning strategies program to improve EFL preparatory stage pupils’ reading skills. The participants of the research were sixty (60) second year preparatory pupils from Riyadh Elsalheen Private School, Mansoura, Al Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt. The study adopted the quasi-experimental research design. So, there were two groups: an experimental group (n= 30) taught through the suggested program and a control (n= 30) taught through the regular method. To collect data, the researcher used multiple instruments: an EFL reading skills test and self-regulated learning strategies inventory. The results of the research revealed that the experimental group outperformed the control group in the reading skills. The research recommends using web-based self-regulated learning strategies as a technique in teaching EFL skills and as a training approach in professional development programs of EFL teachers.
