英语是一门学生们从初一年级开始接受考核的外语,大部分学生也都是在初中阶段才开始系统性地学习英语。初中生在其他学科上已经具备了一定的自主学习能力,但是英语学科对他们来说相对陌生。作为一门语言类学科,光有课堂上的教学是远远不够,因此培养初中生的英语自主学习能力显得尤其重要。本文旨在分析自主学习能力培养的重要性以及浅谈如何培养好自主学习能力。 English is a foreign language in which students begin their examinations in the first grade. Most students also begin to systematically study English in the junior high school. Junior high school students already have some independent learning ability in other disciplines, but the English discipline is relatively unfamiliar to them. As a linguistic subject, it is far from enough to teach in the classroom. Therefore, it is particularly important to cultivate junior high school students’ English self-learning ability. The purpose of this article is to analyze the importance of self-directed learning and how to develop self-directed learning.
