Autonomy in language learning: Getting learners actively involved

The aim of this volume is to expand knowledge on research and action-research on language learner autonomy, conceivably inspiring further investigation into how students can be helped to be more actively involved in their own learning. The volume explores concepts such as ‘motivation’, ‘self-efficacy’, ‘learner strategies’, ‘self-reflection’, as well as the use of specific autonomous tools and tasks that may be included in the curriculum, yet help students make the most of out-of-class language learning opportunities.
