Opis

Due to developments in Information and Communication Technology (ICT), distance language learning has attracted the interests of ESL/EFL teachers and learners over the world. This book tries to evaluate one way of distance language learning, i.e. Moodle-based context, by exploring language learning strategies among distance language learners. The book illustrates that although distance language learners have their own specific patterns of strategy, they are medium level strategy users. Furthermore, the work emphasizes that males and females at Moodle-based distance context do not show a different behavior in terms of using language learning strategies.
