Language Learning Strategies
Language Futures has been designed to foster deep learner engagement and to enable students to take responsibility for their own learning. In order to foster independence, students need to develop strategies and skills to lead their own learning and become resilient linguists. Skills will include planning, analysing and evaluating ways of learning; being able to communicate; how to practise language; strategies to support memorisation; and the ability to apply their prior knowledge.
