Research Significance Full-time compulsory education ordinary junior middle school English curriculum standards (2007) states that the key point of the curriculum reform is to initiate the learning mode of experience, practice, partic

15、nd to form autonomous learning ability. 3. Statement of the problems At present, the traditional teacher-centered approach is generally used in English language teaching, which pays too much attention to the accumulation of students knowledge. There is imbalance in the research of cultivating studen
16、ts autonomous learning ability in different eras, especially for the middle school English language teaching, it is almost a blank space and need to be studied intensively. Students at different ages have great diversity in the aspects of metacognition knowledge and metacognition control, especially
17、 for the middle school students, their self-control and self-management ability is not strong. Ordinarily, they just receive the knowledge from the teachers mechanically, and seldom analyses and settle the knowledge by themselves. Furthermore, different courses have their own characteristic, then di
18、versified ways and measures should be used to cultivate students autonomous learning ability. English is a special course, and we must cultivate students self-awareness of autonomous learning, raise their interest in English, and then make them obtain the ability of self-learning. So the research of
19、 cultivating students autonomous learning ability should be carried out in stages and subjects, but there are very few middle school teachers to do the research according to the practical situation, such as different years of age, different courses, students from different places, and different teac

There are just more theory studies done by the experts in colleges and universities.Herein, the author carries out the research below of cultivating students autonomous learning ability in junior middle school English teac

22、terature Review 1.1 Theoretical Bases of Autonomous Learning in English 1.1.1 Definition of autonomous learning Behaviorist psychologists think that autonomous learning includes three parts: self-control, self-instruction, and self-strengthening. But modern learning theorists propose that autonomous
23、 learning should be defined in eight dimensions: learning motivation, learning contents, learning methods, learning time, learning process, learning results, learning environment, and the sociality of learning . If the students can make autonomous choices and control themselves in the eight dimensio
24、ns, then they are thought to be autonomous. Zimmerman in City University of New York (1994), a famous American expert of autonomous learning, puts forward a systematic research framework of autonomous learning. He thinks students study is autonomous when they are in good condition in all the three a
25、spects of matacognition, motivation, and behavior. That is to say that in the aspect of matacognition, the students with autonomous learning ability can plan and organize the different tasks in different stages during the process of learning, and they can conduct self-construction, self-control and
26、self-evaluation; in the aspect of motivation they regard themselves as capable, effective, and self-control people and they have adequate confidence to accomplish learning tasks. Whats more their learning motivation could be strengthened by experiencing the efficiency of success; in the aspect of be
27、havior they can choose, organize, change, and innovate their ways of study so as to reach the maximum learning efficiency. 1.2 The Repositioning of Teachers and Students in Autonomous Learning 1.2.1 Teachers in autonomous learning (1)Teachers should help students to set up the concept of learning au

In teaching c

30、their diversified roles objectively. They should help students to develop the following abilities: determining learning targets, choosing learningcontents and schedule, cultivating leaning methods and strategies, monitoring learning process and evaluating the results. 1.2.2 Students in autonomous le
31、arning (1)Students should have the sense of participation Dewey once put forward the idea of learning by doing, and people always recommend Nothing is more important than participation. Only by practice can we know whether we are capable or not, understanding their own advantages and disadvantages. Therefore participation is not only taking part in the procedure of learning activities but also the standards of inspecting our knowledge. By participating diverse activities, the students can feel different kinds of sent
