There are a host of competing theories many of which focus on various forms of neurobiological impairment. Since therapies would have to start out from the identification of an underlying cause, this means that most treatments are based on speculative theorizing. The more authoritative studies argue the point that dyslexia is a stable condition. This means that the most promising path towards supporting dyslexic learners would be to set up a learning environment in which their personality and especially their self-esteem can develop in a climate of mutual trust and respect. The article summarizes the content of a specific psychological program for developing self-esteem and compares its recommendations with what happens in the autonomy classroom. The logbook entries of a severe dyslexic learner testify to the fact that she feels accepted and respected by teacher and classmates alike, which augurs well for her linguistic development. Text samples covering a span of five years give evidence of a successful learning undertaking.","PeriodicalId":23709,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5 - 2020, Issue 9 - September","volume":"26 1","pages":"The Answer is Learner Autonomy: Issues in Language Teaching and Learning."},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73805399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pree","doi":"10.47908/9/14","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.47908/9/14","url":null,"abstract":"The study described in this article focuses on two major subject areas. On the one hand, different age groups of university language students at B2, B2+ and C1 level were asked to evaluate the opportunities of Moodle when studying English as an applied business language; on the other hand, the students’ disposition to use Moodle as a technological tool to foster learner autonomy was investigated. As Moodle provides social media features such as blogs, chats and quizzes, it seems to perfectly supplement traditional classroom teaching with student activities which can be performed without the supervision of the language instructor. One question of the survey among 138 applied business language students at the JKU (Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria) therefore attempted to establish how much the increasing use of social media has impacted on students’ needs for teacher-independent online learning. The results show a clear preference for ‘conservative’ language acquisition methods. Only 25% of the less advanced students (and even fewer of the more advanced ones) are interested in using social media features to direct their own learning progress and/or to create their own course content. The teacher still is - in the eyes of these students - very clearly the only person to provide content. This article will discuss the survey in detail and offer possible explanations for its results.","PeriodicalId":23709,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5 - 2020, Issue 9 - September","volume":"23 1","pages":"The Answer is Learner Autonomy: Issues in Language Teaching and Learning."},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73966636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I will begin by pointing out a number of constraints with which I am faced in my particular teaching and learning context, and which, at first sight, seem to rule out the establishment of a learner-centred classroom environment involving students actively in relevant decision-making processes. I will then discuss, in some detail, those aspects of a pedagogy for autonomy which I have been introducing over the years to encourage my students to take on a more active role in their learning: learner diaries, peer-reviewing sessions, a seating arrangement in groups of four, and self-evaluation tasks/progress checks before exams. I will also reproduce in my paper short extracts from learner diaries and peer-reviewed texts produced by my students, and an example of a self-evaluation task/progress check. I will conclude by stressing that for me personally the discovery of the concept of learner autonomy was an invaluable experience, influencing my whole approach to teaching and learning.","PeriodicalId":23709,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5 - 2020, Issue 9 - September","volume":"378 1","pages":"The Answer is Learner Autonomy: Issues in Language Teaching and Learning."},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76435625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Against this background, an increasing number of teachers committed to learner autonomy attempt to support their students in taking over responsibility for their own learning. This, apart from discovering and developing cognitive learning strategies, includes a gradually increasing awareness of all steps involved in the learning process at a meta-cognitive level. Especially when it comes to textbooks, however, freedom of choice is often all too well given up by teachers although textbooks are per se understood as something which enforces the classic division of roles in the classroom and thus hinder the development of autonomy. Nevertheless, textbooks still enjoy an almost sacrosanct status in many classrooms for a number of reasons. From the teachers’ perspective, textbooks are often believed to mirror the curriculum and thus contain everything that students need to learn. For students, the raison d’être of textbooks is often that they present what they believe their teachers and/or the institution expect them to learn. In this article I shall elaborate on some of the myths surrounding textbooks and discuss possibilities of using the textbook in the autonomy classroom by drawing on examples from one of my own Business English courses.","PeriodicalId":23709,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5 - 2020, Issue 9 - September","volume":"86 1","pages":"The Answer is Learner Autonomy: Issues in Language Teaching and Learning."},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89039612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
