Towards a Classroom Pedagogy for Learner Autonomy: A Framework of Independent Language Learning Skills
In recent years there has been a growing recognition of the importance of learner autonomy and the role of individual learners in directing their own learning process, both inside and outside the classroom (Alford & Pachler, 2007; Benson, 2000; Breen, 2001; Conacher & Kelly-Holmes, 2007). However, in practice it is not always clear how to support learners in this role, and how to ensure they ar...
متن کاملTowards an Inquiry-Based Language Learning: Can a Wiki Help?
Wiki use may help EFL instructors to create an effective learning environment for inquiry-based language teaching and learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wikis on the EFL learners’ IBL process. Forty-nine EFL students participated in the study while they conducted research projects in English. The Non-wiki group (n = 25) received traditional inquiry instr...
متن کاملTowards Informed Reinforcement Learning
In this paper, we introduce the ideas of Informed Reinforcement Learning, an extension of Relational Reinforcement Learning, in which partial world models are being learned, in order to improve convergence to the optimal policy, using goal-oriented reasoning. Furthermore, an algorithm is presented to enhance an RRL-agent with reasoning capabilities.
متن کاملThe effect of language complexity and group size on knowledge construction: Implications for online learning
This study investigated the effect of language complexity and group size on knowledge construction in two online debates. Knowledge construction was assessed using Gunawardena et al.’s Interaction Analysis Model (1997). Language complexity was determined by dividing the number of unique words by total words. It refers to the lexical variation. The results showed that...
متن کاملMaterials Design and Pedagogy for Technology-Enhanced Language Learning
Advancement in technology has facilitated the transmission and access to learning resources, and communication among participants in the teaching and learning process. However, a technology-enhanced learning environment does not automatically produced high quality learning outcomes. It needs to be supported by suitable learning materials and strategies for blended learning which suit the learni...
