Title: Autonomous learning: Putting autonomy into practice
Learner autonomy has been a key issue in foreign language learning since the end of the 1970s when Henri Holec first published his seminal work Autonomy and Foreign Language Learning for the Council of Europe. Although learner autonomy is not always explicitly mentioned as an approach to or outcome of learning, the idea has found entry into most official documents for foreign language education and has gained increasing scholarly attention.
Learner autonomy, however, does not mean that learners learn on their own independently from the social context in which the learning takes place. Quite contrary to this, autonomous learning is an inherently social endeavour in which learners work together (in groups, pairs, and alone) towards achieving a common goal.
The aim of this course, however, is not to explore foreign language learner autonomy as a theoretical construct or field of research. Rather, our intention is to close the gap between theory and practice by exploring hands-on and easy-to-use activities which support teachers and students in different contexts.
