CLASS : IVA

GROUP : 5

• AUTONOMY, AWARENESS, AND ACTION

• Autonomy : allowing learners to do things like initiate oral production, solve problem in small groups, practice language forms in pairs, and practice using the language outside of the classroom.
• Awareness : has language program that offering more occasions for learners to develop a metacognitive awareness of their ongoing learning. Rosa and Leow (2004) found that learners of Spanish as a second language in the United States showed improved performance under condition of awareness-raising.
• Action : Something that students’ do in learning process

• STRATEGIES

Strategies are those specific “attacks” that we make on a given problem and that vary considerably within each individual. Good language learners have fourteen characteristic:

1. Find their own way, taking charge of their learning
2. Organize information about language
3. Are creative, developing a “feel” for the language by experimenting with its grammar and words
4. Make their own opportunities for practice in using the language inside and outside the classroom
5. Learn to live with uncertainty by not getting flustered and by continuing to talk or listen without understanding every word
6. Use mnemonics and other memory strategies to recall what has been learned
7. Make errors work for them and not against them
8. Use linguistic knowledge, including knowledge of their first language, in learning a second language
9. Use contextual cues to help them in comprehension
10. Learn to make intelligent guesses
11. Learn chunks of language as wholes and formalized routines to help them perform “beyond their competence”
12. Learn certain tricks that help to keep conversation going
13. Learn certain production strategies to fill in gaps in their own competence
14. Learn different styles of speech and writing and learn to vary their language according to the formality of the situation.

• LEARNING STRATEGIES

Strategies were divided into three main categories. They are metacognitive, cognitive, and socioaffective.

1. Metacognitive is a term used in information-processing theory to indicate an “executive” function, strategies that involve planning for learning, thinking about the learning process as it is taking place, monitoring of one’s production or comprehension, and evaluating learning after an activity is completed (Purpura, 1997).
2. Cognitive strategies are more limited to specific learning tasks and involve more direct manipulation of the learning material itself.
3. Socioaffective strategies have to do with social-mediating activity and interacting with others. Additionally, learners use many ways to learn a second language through several important skills such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Those are the strategies that English language learners can improve their learning.
