Autonomy has become a keyword of language policy in education systems around the world, as the importance of independent learning and new technologies has grown. Now in a fully revised and updated second edition, "Teaching and Researching Autonomy "provides an accessible and comprehensive critical account of the theory and practice of autonomy. Examining the history of the concept, it addresses important questions of how we can identify autonomy in language learning behaviours and how we can evaluate the wide variety of educational practices that have been designed to foster autonomy in learning. Topics new to this edition include: - Autonomy and new technologies - Teacher autonomy - The sociocultural implications of autonomy With over three hundred new references and five new case studies of research on autonomy providing practical advice on research methods and topics in the field, "Teaching and Researching Autonomy" will be an essential introduction for teachers and students to a subject at the cutting edge of language teaching and research."" Phil Benson is a Professor in the Department of English at the Hong Kong Institute of Education.He has published widely on autonomy and narrative research and is now pursuing interests in second language identities and popular culture and education.

Abstract: Abstract Fostering Learner Autonomy among Weak Students via Information Technology submitted by Annie Leung Kit Mui for the degree of Master of Arts (Applied Linguistics) at the University of Hong Kong September 2004 Learner autonomy is being promoted at different levels of curriculum, age groups, and more significantly among tertiary students or young adults as supporting skills to life long learning. This dissertation examines autonomous learning among weak learners aiming at post secondary level, making use of Information Technology (IT). The potential of IT in web reading and email communication for authentic language resources to enhance autonomous learning is the key issue to be examined. Autonomous learning was approached in three dimensions: learners' participation in the learning process, utilizing IT as the learning mode and establishing roles in self-management. This study attempts to find out how weak students can develop learner autonomy in second language learning. The research investigation is based on students' perceptions of learner autonomy; the effectiveness of IT and email communication; and learners' awareness of their roles and responsibilities. Questionnaires, email replies and interviews were used to collect both quantitative and qualitative data. Students' views were interpreted for indication of the degree of learner autonomy being developed among the participants. On the whole, the results showed positive comments and supported IT as the learning and communication tool. This study was only an introductory training for weak learners and the subjects showed an increased use of English web pages as their fundamental integration of IT as the learning mode. Finally implications for teachers' roles and concern for proper use of the Internet are discussed. It is generally felt that autonomous learning can be a promising means to raise students' awareness of their roles and responsibilities in language learning, although the involvement of teacher's role is equally important for successful learner autonomy implementation.

Writing has great potential in fostering the development of learner autonomy, especially when an appropriate pedagogical approach is used. This book reports on a study which explored the effects a multiple-draft peer-review writing programme had on the development of autonomous skills and attitudes among some young ESL writing learners. In particular, findings from two of the classes, both from the same girls' school but one taught by a native English-speaking teacher (NET)and the other by a local English teacher (LET), shed some light on how cultural differences may affect the outcomes of a pedagogical approach. Implications for further research are discussed.

At the heart of this study is the fostering of learner autonomy in the language classroom, in particular how learner autonomy can be developed through pedagogical tasks. The work focuses on four different approaches: the classroom-related, the resource-related and the technology-related. The book combines classroom theory, research and practice, all of which are immersed in the philosophy of social constructivism, whereby knowledge and learning are seen as both the context for and the result of human interaction. ""This is the book everyone in the field has been waiting for. It is the product of excellent classroom research... highly engaging, relevant, readable, and above all, practical in its handling of the issues."" Prof. John McRae, University of Nottingham, UK. ""This book is a perfect combination of theoretical and practical proposals that make it possible to implement and foster learner autonomy in the EFL/ESL classroom."" Prof. Wolfgang Hallet, Justus Liebig University, Giessen, Germany

The present volume brings together papers devoted to the role of learner and teacher autonomy in the process of second and foreign language learning, which have been contributed by scholars from Poland and abroad. The book has been divided into three parts in accordance with the topics that the individual contributions touch upon. The first part includes papers dealing with different ways in which learner autonomy can be fostered and evaluated. The papers contained in Part Two are connected with the role of language learning strategies in the development of learner independence. Finally, Chapter Three focuses on developing teacher autonomy, which, in the opinion of many specialists, is indispensable if learner autonomy is to be promoted. Thanks to its wide-ranging focus, this edited collection will be of interest not only to second language learning specialists interested in the role of learner autonomy, but also to undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate students working on their BA, MA and PhD theses, as well as practitioners wishing to promote learner independence in their classrooms.

This book is a collection of papers that explores the notion of learner autonomy and the problem of helping language learners to manage their learning effectively. The first part of the book deals with issues of definition: what is the cognitive base for autonomous learning behaviour and how is this mediated by social and cultural expectations of a learner's role? The second part reports on experiences of working with learners and with teachers to promote learner autonomy. In working with learners, the focus is on language learning strategies and how strategic learning might be developed through strategy training, materials design, reflection and counselling. In working with teachers, the focus is on bringing about change in traditional perspectives on the roles of learners and teachers within education systems.
