This book focuses on pedagogy for autonomy in language teaching within a vision of education as transformation and empowerment. It proposes a framework for learner and teacher autonomy based on three structuring elements: the context, the learner, and the teacher.

Recenzje

«For many reasons I can wholeheartedly recommend this publication to everyone who is planning to or has already put learner autonomy into practice. One reason is that, although grounded in theory, this publication is very practical, especially through a series of interspersed questionnaires and reflection sheets which invite all readers to think about their own teaching context as well as approaches and con-straints to learner autonomy.»
