Based on act of The Republic of Indonesia number 20, year 2003 on National Education System, learners should be active participants and able to develop their full potential. From the statement, the paradigm in educational field has changed from teacher centered learning to student-centered learning. Teaching language learners to learn so that they will be effective learners is a major issue in language teaching nowadays. A way to do that is by conducting strategy instruction. So, the purpose of this paper is to find out the definition of LLS, factors affecting the choice of LLS, classification of  LLS, characteristics of LLS instruction, and models of LLS instruction.

Instruction Design

The study investigated the impact of scenario-based instruction on language learners’ awareness and use of self-regulated language learning (SRL) strategies to provide an instructional design to successfully promote them. The scenario-based SRL strategy instruction design developed in the study was based on Oxford’s Strategic, Self-Regulation (S2R) Model. Following an experimental design, the data were gathered from foreign language learners ( N = 125) at a state university through three instruments: the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning, whole-class discussions, and semistructured interviews. Although the quantitative data from the inventory helped determine the level of reported strategy use by learners, the additional qualitative data were gathered to elicit learners’ reflections to determine SRL awareness during and following the training experience. Analyzing pre- and posttraining results from the control and the experimental groups indicated significant differences with an increased awareness and a higher reported use of strategies for the experimental group. The results are meant to help guide future directions in strategy instruction for foreign language learning.

In the article, theoretical-and methodological approaches of modern scholars to the issue of implementing learning strategies into the process of teaching foreign languages are ascertained. The development of strategies and the strategy repertoire along with factors that influence the choice of strategies and their transfer to different learning contexts is considered. Strategy instruction and its impact on language learners are observed. The variety and diversity of factors affecting the choice and the use of learning strategies, namely, motivation, learner autonomy, self-regulation, prior learning experience and students’ beliefs, which determine individual choice of language learning strategies by students of higher education establishments are analyzed. The transfer of general learning strategies to new learning contexts, notably to learning foreign languages, and the predictive value they have in language achievement is defined. The value and importance of learning strategies and the relationship between success, achievement and performance and examined. The teaching of the wide scope of strategies to language students to help them become more efficient, effective and productive is addressed. Possible differences in learning strategy types and frequency of strategy use in low and high strategy users as well as high and low achievers of foreign language learners are identified. Research needs to be conducted to find more efficient ways of training learners to use language learning strategies effectively. The length, the amount and the type of strategy instruction that has more impact on the students’ adoption of learning of strategies should be scrutinized. The type of strategies that learners are more susceptible to accept and adopt not only in the short term but also in the long term should be analyzed. No study has been conducted in the general set of strategies which beginner learners of English transfer from their general repertoire of strategies to language learning as the primary tools to face language learning and the extent to which these strategies will help them in attaining success in language learning.

Learning language theory and implementation of active learning strategy is expected to show one picture and motivation for the academic community by inviting the learner to actively do or perform any process of learning language based on the theory and strategy of active learning. This method is included in student-centered learning approach or student-centered learning. The author also wants to illustrate the mistaken implications of the implementation of learning strategies and change the paradigm, that language learning is not only a necessary cognitive factor but involves all elements of learning that include the cognitive, physical, mental and emotional aspects. In addition, in the process of language learning it is not enough to rely on one strategy and one method but to use diverse methods and strategies. Because, every method and strategy has their respective advantages

Vocabulary Learning Strategies

Nowadays, it is strongly irrefutable that vocabulary skills founds the stepping-stone to  language learning and should be at the epicenter of language education, in re to the fact that much cannot be implied without grammar; nothing can be imparted without vocabulary. Understanding the key notions of how vocabulary is acquired can help language teachers be able to dispense more realistic and effective vocabulary teaching. With this thought in mind, it is crucial to acquaint students with vocabulary learning strategies (VLS) so that they can do this more effectively. With the expansion of research on vocabulary learning strategy instruction, the question to be posed is whether training on strategies will culminate in improvement in language learners or not. Thus, based on the significance ascribed to teaching vocabulary learning strategies in the process of language learning, the present paper seeks to cull evidences and scour the effectiveness of teaching vocabulary learning strategies.  Keywords: Vocabulary, vocabulary learning, strategy training for vocabulary learning.

History Of

This chapter begins with definitions and an overview of methods used to identify learners' strategies, then summarizes what we have learned from the large number of descriptive studies of strategies reported by language learners. Research on language learning strategies has a history of only about thirty years, and much of this history has been sporadic. The 1980s and early 1990s were a period of substantial research on language learning strategies, much of it descriptive. This period was followed by an apparent loss of interest in language learning strategies, judging by limited reported research and few related conference presentations. Recently, however, a number of new investigations have reinvigorated the field. The focus of the chapter is on the evolution of research on language learning strategy intervention studies, the issues that have emerged from this research, and metacognitive models that can be useful in the language classroom. The discussion concludes by setting out directions for future research.

The Difference

This writing aims to explain Learning Strategy Inquiry (SPI) and its application in learning Indonesian. Learning is not just memorizing and not just remembering, but learning is a process marked by a change in a person. Inquiry learning strategies will help teachers bring students to understand the concept of subject matter. In addition, it will also bring students in learning that emphasizes the critical and analytical thinking process to seek and find answers to a questionable problem for learning outcomes. Inquiry learning strategy is a student centered learning strategy that is very demanding of student activities. Initially this inquiry learning strategy is widely applied in the natural sciences (natural science). But demilkian, social sciences education experts adopted inquiry strategies that later became called social inquiry. From the characteristics of inquiry as described above, the application of social inquiry in Indonesian language learning is not different from the application of inquiry in general. The difference lies solely in the problem under study. Thus, the application of inquiry learning strategies in learning Indonesian, will certainly examine the subject matter in the Indonesian language

Over the last 40 years, plenty research has extensively examined the role of learning strategies on the language acquisition/learning. In Indonesia, unfortunately, this issue seemingly receives less attention at least until 2000’s.  Perhaps, Setiyadi’s (2001; 2004) and Mistar’s (2001) work which both studied students’ learning strategies in a university degree could be declared as the first batch of strategies-oriented research, and followed by  Subekti& Lawson (2007) and Mistar&Umamah (2014). Generally, the studies were descriptive or correlational in which depicting the types of strategies that the learners employed, or sought a relationship between learning strategies and the learners’ academic achievements. Strikingly, none elucidated strategy-instruction as the key priority. In fact, this is vital to ensure whether these strategies really could help poor language learners in practice.

Purpose of the study: This article report’s findings from a study on the differences and similarities between experienced and novice English language learners with regards to their personal use of VLS. Methodology: Closed questionnaire and semi-structure interviews were applied to collect the data. The questionnaire was distributed among 60 (30 experienced learners and 30 novice learners). In addition, 20 learners (10 experienced learners and 10 novice learners) were asked to answer the questions in the interview. Therefore, descriptive statistics, U Mann Whitney test, and independent-sample t-test were run to compare and analyzed the data. Main Findings: The finding showed that there were significant differences between experienced and novice learners’ thoughts towards vocabulary learning strategies and experienced learners used vocabulary learning strategies while learning new words in English language learning. Applications of this study: If the learners are taught how to use each strategy correctly, their understanding of the language can naturally be improved. Moreover, VLS is beneficial throughout the process of vocabulary learning which makes learners more independent and allows teachers to focus on other things as well. Novelty/Originality of this study: To the best of researchers’ knowledge, no study has been done on investigating Iranian experienced and novice English language learners` perceptions towards most useful vocabulary learning strategies (VLS).
