LEARNING STRATEGY TRAINING

LEARNING STRATEGY TRAINING

INTRODUCTION

  Learning strategy is the specific actions to make the students better in learning a second language

  Learning Strategy Training is based on problems students encounter in the process of learning target language

  According to Rubin, good languages learners are willing and accurate guessers who have a strong desire to communicate, and will attempt to do so even at the risk of appearing foolish.

 These problems are needed to be solved for an effective learning.

                 First ,students are given the strategy and than they are expected to apply it.

                Learning Strategy Training focuses on learner training as much as language teaching.

              Students should be responsible for their own learning.

              They should follow their learning process and be aware of their deficient and efficient sides. They should also monitor their selves and identify what they need.

              The teacher helps them to facilitate their learning and to be more effective in learning the target language. After the students get some learning strategies, they have a

             cognition about them.

The Teacher’s role

               The teacher decides to have the student work on the strategy of advanced organization

          The teacher models the use of the strategy using a think-aloud demonstration

         The teacher’s job is not only to teach language, but to teach learning

         The teacher ask the student to try out the new strategy on a different reading they choose for homework.

              guess the answer from the context rather than giving the answer directly

         The teacher emboldens them they will achieve their difficulties over time using the strategy.

The Student’s role

                   Studying certain learning strategies will contribute to academic success

                For many students, strategies have to be learned.

               Students need to become independent, self-regulated learners. Self-assessment contributes to learner autonomy

                The  student practice the new learning strategy

         The  students evaluate their own success in learning the strategy.

CONCLUSION

Learning strategy training is the specific actions to make the students better in learning a second language. It suggests that teachers should elicit the problems of the students and try to develop a solution for them. Learning Strategy Training is based on problems students encounter in the process of learning target language. In this method the teacher helps student learn how to learn more effectively.
