So learner autonomy is all about trying to get students to learn in a self-directed fashion - as soon as possible? #ELTchat |
| Ashowski |
2015-03-04T21:04:01 |
@bethcagnol I think it depends on what you mean by responsibilities. I think they're responsibile for their own learning #eltchat |
| Marisa_C |
2015-03-04T21:04:05 |
@bethcagnol small responsibilities - on a rotation basis - are what every good YL will do naturally - to make Ss more autonomous #ELTchat |
