Abstract:
Learner Autonomy and Web 2.0 explores tensions between “classical” definitions
of learner autonomy and the learning dynamics observed in online contexts.
Autonomy is viewed as emerging and developing in a complex relationship with
L2 proficiency and other competencies. A wide diversity of environments is
featured, ranging from adaptive learning systems, through mobile apps, to
social networking sites and - almost inevitably - MOOCs. Paradoxically,
autonomy appears to flourish in some tightly restrictive contexts, while users
of avowedly open platforms are seen to experience difficulty in learning to
self-regulate.
David Little and Steve Thorne set the stage with a discussion exploring the
evolution of language learner autonomy, from its origins in the era of
self-access resource centres to its more recent instantiations in online (and
offline) learning communities. Other contributors explore how autonomy can be
exercised within adaptive learning systems, how adult learners in a teletandem
exchange envisage metacognitive competences, how mobile apps support the
emergence of autonomy among primary level language learners, and how
collaborative language learners, using social media, demonstrate learner
autonomy with an empathetic dimension. Finally, two chapters chart the
challenges faced by autonomous learners in unsupported environments, whether
on MOOC platforms, or using informal means.
