TY - JOUR AU - Thao, Tran Quoc AU - Long, Nguyen Chau Hoang PY - 2020 TI - The use of Self-regulated Language Learning Strategies Among Vietnamese English-majored Freshmen: A Case Study JF - VNU Journal of Science: Education Research; Vol 36 No 1 DO - 10.25073/2588-1159/vnuer.4331 KW - N2 - 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. UR - https://js.vnu.edu.vn/ER/article/view/4331
