LANGUAGE LEARNING STRATEGIES Language learning strategies are mainpoints to make learning easy and simple for learners when they are learning a language. These strategies are important to improve some skills such as learning skills, thinking skills, learning to learn skills and problem solving skills. These skills should be improved with the strategies because, the process of learning a language is long and difficult. If the skills are improved by possible and suitable strategies, the process can be shorter and the learning can be more effective. (Oxford, 1990)
These strategies have some features which make the strategies important and necessary for learning (Oxford, 1990) The most important feature of the strategies is that they

Firstly, communicative competence which is the main goal of the strategies is contributed thanks to language learning strategies. Another feature of language learning strategies is becoming self-directed. Language learners will not always have guide teacher because they also use the language outside of the classroom. That’s why self direction is especially essential for language learners. (Oxford, 1990) Roles of the teachers are another feature of language learning strategies. The strategies force the teachers to change their roles. For example, a teacher is expected to be a person who is a kind of hero. The teacher should be a parent when one of his or her students need that or the teacher should inspect the studies of the learners, so the teacher takes the role of an inspector. (Oxford, 1990)Problem solving skill of the learners can be improved by language learning strategies. Students focus on the main problem when they create a strategy. So they can be aware of the main problem and possible solutions carefully. (Oxford, …show more content…
Also the strategies are identifying, classifying and evaluating by researchers and teachers. (Oxford,1990) The system of language learning strategies are divided into two parts as Direct strategies and Indirect strategies. The two part of strategies have tree different groups. Direct strategies include Memory strategies,cognitive strategies and compensation strategies. Beside this, Indirect strategies contain Metacognitive strategies, Affective strategies, and social strategies. (Oxford, 1990) These different part of the two main parts have different tasks. (Oxford, 1990) Creating mental linkages which is the begining of creating memory strategies and applying images and sounds which are tools for remembering some important topics. Reviewing well and employing action are belong to memory strategies.

In chapter 7 the main topics that were discussed were thinking, language and intelligence. The aspect of cognition is defined as the mental activities involved in acquiring, retaining and using knowledge. Thinking involves be to manipulate internal, mental representation of information to be able to draw inferences and conclusions. With thinking there are two kinds of mental representation present which are, mental images and concepts. There are also types of concepts that are used with thinking.
If you problem solve, you will get what you need and want. In the video The Panyee Football Club, the boys are good problem-solvers in the beginning, middle, and end. They believed they could make a team, they built the space they needed, and made changes to the game when it wasn’t going well. In the beginning, the boys are good problem- solvers because they believed they could make a team. The evidences that support my thesis is when the kids were watching TV, one of the kid said, “Instead of watching TV, lets make a team and play in real life.”
Karl, as mentioned in the patient profile has been diagnosed with asthma. As this disease is very for broad for the purpose of this session I have choose to focus on the inhaler technique. It is a technique which is required on a daily basis and if the technique is not correct it can result in complications. PLANNING:
Additionally, the tasks need to be constructive and interlinked and provide a challenge to the students while also acting as a motivation factor. The adopting of effective teaching to match the personal strengths of the students ensures that a student’s learning outcome is achieved Holistic assessment should be encouraged to understand what the learner has captured on a learning
Students will be enriched when assessing the information attained from these
Strategy is primarily people for setting and implementing strategy and monitoring performance. The primary role is to fit with all other forces. Structure basic design on how our people are organized to do our job. This let us know how centralized are you.
Kurt Lewin’s major contribution lies in the field of Group Dynamics, Field Theory and Action Research. He modelled the social change process in organisational, particularly, industrial setups. 1. Group Dynamics: - Lewin’s definition of a group is widely accepted. Here the basic line of argument is that groups come into being in a psychological sense ‘not because their members necessarily are similar to one another (although they may be); rather, a group exists when people in it realize their fate depends on the fate of the group as a whole’
Question1 Explain the advantages and disadvantages of Henry Mintzberg’s prescriptive schools of strategy Design school The process of conception is using the major idea of SWOT which divided into two sides; internal (strength and weakness) and external (opportunity and threat) factors. Social responsibility and Managerial values also play a role in the formulation of the strategy. When the four factors is analyzed, the next step is creation of strategy which is suitable to organization and final stage is implementation follow by that strategy. Advantages: -Separate the step between design strategy and implementation clearly
Quinn (1998) puts it best when he says a strategy is a plan that integrates an organization’s major goals, policies,
the behavior focus on showing the learners to know how to monitor , have self planning and revising techniques. We , as learners must build on top of what we already know. If you want to be excel in using this theory, you will need to be :- you need to have a certain information so you can add on top of it. your information has to be in order according to its difficulties, you can maintain it.
However, the goal is to produce an outcome; if they cannot continue through the process because of conflict, the team may not get a satisfactory result and progress will stall and the team will fail to perform the task, will not get to evaluate on their experiences or present a finished product (Tuckman 1965). Additionally, it requires participants to use an in-depth method of thought called critical thinking. This process will challenge them to look at different aspects of why the event happened, and they might find that they had a misconceived understanding beforehand and, that, has changed as they explore further and internalise what they have learned.
It provides the most effective learning condition which is the gap between what the learners can and cannot do without help in the ZPD. When planning the scaffold, a teacher should consider the designed-in scaffold, where the teacher has to plan before a teacher and the interactional contingent which is the situation in the classroom context. The teacher can provide the scaffold to learners during listening and speaking class to help the learners to decode and meaning build the sound they heard. A teacher who is not able to provide suitable scaffolding in the classroom is not able to motivate the learners to learn because the lesson may be either too simple or too difficult for the learners to learn. In conclusion, a “good” language teacher should be able to plan, select and sequence the activities to provide the suitable challenge and scaffold for learners to learn
Strategy also defines what kind of resources we need to achieve the goals set by the
Research Questions From the literature review, it was established that there were several factors affecting language learning and acquisition. More specifically, it was revealed that factors such as exposure at an early age, motivation, attitudes, incentives and educational system can influence language acquisition. However, most of the research were conducted in the west and were focused on students as subjects to the study and foreigners working in the country where they need to learn the language to lengthen their range of employment opportunity.
