Learner Autonomy

The book includes a range of activities that are designed to help teachers encourage their learners to develop responsibility for their own learning starting from a low initial level of responsibility and adopting a systematic and gradual approach. The activities can be easily integrated into regular lessons since each serves a clear linguistic purpose and promotes more general learner development. The activities are designed to develop a comprehensive range of skills and attitudes including developing learner strategies monitoring learning processes establishing self-evaluation promoting motivation and developing co-operation.
