Based on the current language skill learning situations and the relevant literature review, this paper firstly forms a hypothesis, introducing self-assessment into the traditional classroom to promote learner freedom, and then does an empirical study to prove that self-assessment can be mastered as a learning skill to enhance students' learning efficiency.展开更多

Those results reveal that student autonomy in learning is not satisfactory, since learners have difficulty adapting to the new learning mode. Some proposals — centred on the deeper co-operation of teachers and students, as well as the institution in its wider context — have been put forth as solutions to this problem.展开更多
