I really liked this tool. I see that it is very useful and handy for children. They can enjoy from it and they can set their own projects on it.
At schools learner autonomy helps students to grow up as they become less dependent on teachers and rely more on themselves. Of course the autonomy a student has largely depends on what the student can do with language. At early stages students will be more dependent on the teacher but as timer goes by things will change easily and so they will grow less dependent on her.
But learner autonomy depends on using the type of language the student can understand because if like Krashen said i+1 is instead i+10 then the student will not be able to do it and drop out of the activity.
The activities proposed have to be interesting enough so that they like the idea of doing them and so they become motivated. Besides these activities have to allow students to think critically and so activities like those include discussions, opinions, etc. In this way they will be able to learn more and learn how to be an adult

Hi Elena!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou’re fully right. The autonomous learners show initiative regarding learning, and share in monitoring progress and evaluating the level to which learning is achieved. Learner Autonomy is entirely indispensable for students to get through in their learning skills. Learner Autonomy helps students as well as teachers to make better their learning strategies in every aspect of life span. Autonomous learners always get through in their work and efforts. Teacher should educate their students to become effective autonomous learners in every sector of lifetime.

Hi Elena,
ReplyDeleteI support you that autonomous learners rely on themselves rather than the teachers. regarding learners autonomy, i think it is very close with self-directed learning.
Warm regards

ReplyDeleteHello Elena,
ReplyDeleteI liked this spider gram very much. It summarizes the autonomous learning process in a very simple way that leads the reader to all the aspects related to this type of learning. The learner should be independent, self directed, self motivated and collaborative. I also made a padlet. I published an article on it about learner autonomy. I myself will apply this tool inside my classroom.

Thank you so much for your thoughts. I agree with each one of you. I found that the mind map summarizes all our thoughts on autonomous learning and I also that it is necessary for learning. Elena
