What appears to be important is the learners＇ ability to respond to the particular learning situation and to manage their learning in an appropriate way. Studies of successful and unsuccessful learners show that people who succeed in learning have developed a range of strategies from which they are able to select those that are most appropriate for a particular problem, to adapt them flexibly for the needs of the specific situation, and to monitor their level of success. Based on the assumption that integrating strategies into foreign language teaching is both valuable and achievable and that their accomplishment can enhance independent foreign language learning, this paper offered a model of strategy-based instruction, which includes both explicit and implicit integration of strategies into classroom instruction.展开更多

In the study, 76 intermediate EFL students of non-English major were either participants in a strategies-based instruction treatment or were comparison students receiving regular language course. Both groups filled out a pre-treatment learning strategy questionnaire and then performed a pre-test and a post-test. The data looked for links between strategy training and reading proficiency. The findings indicated significant improvements in students' reading comprehension as a result of the strategies-based instruction program. Another finding was that the strategy intervention had an effect on the improvement of students' ability to understand main ideas and make inferences from given passages.展开更多
