| Summary: | Self-regulation of learning plays a vital role in improving second/foreign language
learning as it can encourage the development of autonomous learners. It is seen that, nevertheless,
ESL/EFL learners in different contexts are not fully aware of the importance of self-regulated
language learning (SRLL) strategies in their English language learning. The present study,
therefore, aims at investigating the use of SRLL strategies by English-majored students at a
university in Bac Lieu province, Vietnam. This study involved 100 English-majored freshmen in
answering a closed-ended questionnaire. The results showed that students sometimes used SRLL
strategies, and they used SRLL strategies for keeping and monitoring records and seeking social
assistance more often than for other purposes. The findings imply that students lacked knowledge
of how to use SRLL strategies and get engaged in using SRLL strategies. This study recommends
that students’ awareness of SRLL strategies should be seriously taken into account in order to
facilitate their learner autonomy. |
