Dynamic autonomy model with descriptors » Cooperating



Cooperating

Cooperating is the social and interactive dimension of autonomous language learning. One can learn together with others – complete tasks, speak and discuss, realise a project – but one can also plan and reflect on the individual steps of one’s own learning process.

    I want to learn this

    This isn't important for me

    When I hear something in the foreign language I can focus my attention on aspects which interest me particularly (for example, accent, intonation, vocabulary and expressions, or the structure of the text).

         

    When I don’t understand something I can ask my interlocutor to speak more slowly, to repeat something or to explain something.

         

    I can ask native speakers and competent non-native speakers or other learners to help me (for example, with a formulation or to correct a text).

         

    I can practice the language with native speakers, competent non-native speakers, or other learners.

         

    I can learn by taking part in or observing a communicaton.

         

    I can work with a partner or in a group.

         

    When I work together with others I can

         
    listen to the others (for example, in order to understand their stance)
         

    express my stance

         

    compare my stance with the others’

         

    where applicable, modify my stance to reach a group decision.

    This isn't important for me

    I can decide whether it is better for me to complete a task with others, rather than on my own.

         

    I can decide whether I want to work with a native speaker to achieve my goal (for example, with a tandem partner).

         

    I can recognise when I need to discuss something with a learning advisor.

         

    I can talk about my feelings when necessary (for example, with a fellow student or with an advisor).

         

    I can decide which steps of the learning process I want to carry out with others (for example, planning, choosing materials and methods, completing tasks, monitoring, evaluating).

         

    For further descriptors see dealing with my feelings and monitoring.
