It further analyzes the possible reasons why students perceive their teachers' roles in such a way, in the hope of providing some implications for web-based college English autonomous learning.展开更多

Most researchers concentrate on ESL classroom interaction, learning strategies on autonomy learning, learner autonomy, teacher autonomy, and so on. Little research considers various aspects of autonomous learning meanwhile, let alone how to guide a Chinese college English teacher to cultivate autonomy learners on the basis of relevant findings. It is proved that to promote learner autonomy is an important direction and breakthrough of College English Teaching reform in China. Thus, the paper is intended to offer a series of operational, accessible, and effective suggestions for the development of learner autonomy in China. It is expected hopefully that these suggestions can promote learners to become successful autonomy learners and improve their language learning efficiency.展开更多
