Learner autonomy refers to students taking control of their own learning through active involvement in more difficult tasks to achieve higher results and learn more efficiently. It is a process that boosts intrinsic motivation as students gain their own learning path. To practice learner autonomy, teachers should build on prior knowledge, use engaging topics, create flexible tasks, keep students active through cooperative work, allow choice, encourage risk-taking, help with reflection, and serve as a model. Self-assessment tools like portfolios and learning logs are also important, as is emphasizing pair and group work so students can evaluate their own progress and direct future learning.

needs to be understood as a process
rather than a state. It is often
confused with encouraging self-study,
but the idea goes far beyond that:
by taking control of their
learning, we want students to become
more actively and deeply involved,
try more difficult tasks, have a higher achievement,
and know how to learn so that they can learn
more
efficiently. What’s more, it should help to
boost their intrinsic motivation as they
gain their own learning path.

One of the best ways to implement
learner autonomy in a foreign
language classroom is strong
emphasis on pair and group work. ...
This kind of assessment is vital to
learner autonomy as it helps
students become aware of their own
progress and make informed
decisions about what they have to
do next in the learning process.
