ESTABLISHING SELF ACCESS LEARNING MODE VIA E-LEARNING TO PROMOTE THE LEARNER AUTONOMY

Abstract

Class-based courses following linear syllabuses tend to more teacher-centered learning than learner-centered learning. In addition this kind of learning mode can have difficulty in meeting learner autonomy. As a result it leads the learners of English as a Foreign Languge (EFL) to be unable to learn on their own individual needs. To help them able to learn individually and escape from the binding syllabuses, it is necessary for the EFL teachers to establish a sort of learning mode which can cater their students to learn on their own individual needs. To be concerned with this establishment of individual learning mode, this paper will address its discussion on establishing Self Acces Learning Mode (SALM) via e-learning to promote the learner autonomy. For this discussion, the paper will firstly concentrate on understanding of SALM. Furthermore it will discuss the reasons of SALM establishment. Finally, it will focus on how e-learning can help the EFL teachers provide their students an individual learning mode. With these points of presentation, this paper can hopefully contribute to the EFL teachers in term of providing another individual learning mode for their students via e-learning.
