Yu, Xue-mei
Online Submission, US-China Education Review v4 n1 p58-61 Jan 2007
With the shift of the concept of English teaching, learning beliefs and learning strategies are increasingly attracting researchers' attention. This study, based on a questionnaire, centered on the current situation of learning beliefs and learning strategies used by three-year college students. The result shows: (1) the students have the strongest form-focused beliefs and most disagree with using-mother tongue beliefs; (2) in the practical learning activities, using-mother tongue strategies are most frequently used by students and the frequency of meaning-focused strategies is the lowest and (3) there are significant correlations between belief variables and strategy variables. (Contains 2 tables.)
