Autonomia do auno e instruções de aprendizagem: uma análise em livros didáticos de língua inglesa

Abstract

Learning instructions as an inherent element of textbooks should be considered of paramount importance for the development of learner autonomy. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to verify whether and how English teaching materials cover aspects of learning instructions in the following areas: language learning, learning strategies and learning styles. In other words, we wanted to see if the textbooks support students on how they can improve their learning, how they can use strategies to learn the language and to carry out their activities. In addition, we aimed to identify how and if the materials present students that learning can take place in different ways and that, in order to improve their performance, students need to identify their learning style.
