As elementary teachers increasingly turn to online environments for their literacy-oriented professional learning, evaluating website quality is of growing importance. Using screen capture recordings of participants' navigations, the purpose of this study was to identify the types of online learning environments that elementary teachers use to enhance their literacy practice as well as to evaluate website quality. Findings reveal that teachers access ten main types of online environments. Those that were resource-based were accessed with the highest frequency despite having the lowest quality. Implications for the design of online learning environments as well as self-directed learning are explored in depth.
