Supports to Self-Regulated Learning in the Online Grammar Course

Covid-19 pandemic has rendered teaching and learning activities globally to be carried out in an online distance format, a phenomenon that in Indonesia is commonly referred to as study from home (SFH). Such teaching and learning formats are used in all subject or discipline areas, including English language teaching contexts. A number of studies have been conducted concerning SFH in English language teaching;one of which was by Atmojo and Nugroho (2020), who found that Indonesian secondary school English language teachers carry out online learning both synchronously and asynchronously depending on the school policy. In practice, the teachers used various online applications such as learning management systems and other relevant educational applications. However, the teachers also noted some common problems occurring during online teaching and learning activities, such as lack of preparation and planning and personal problems due to the abrupt change of learning paradigm related to the students, teachers, and parents. As a form of distance learning, SFH requires a higher level of learner autonomy (Collins, 2008;Firat, 2016) due to its activities in which learners are required to take more responsibility towards the effective execution of the learning activities. Distance learning has been closely related to the forms of self-regulated learning in which learners independently take care of their learning with teachers playing the role of supporter and facilitator (Peeters et al., 2014). © 2022 AsiaTEFL.
