The present research has as purpose to develop the autonomy in the learning
process in 8
th grade students, through the use of error correction code and Kolb
learning style test as strategies and resources to be achieved. This is going to be a
useful tool in the students learning process, not only in the English as a subject, or
in the school setting, but also in their future lives. To encourage students to develop autonomy in their learning process, some
strategies were discussed. First, it was mandatory to make students aware about
the way in which they learn, or as well-known; their learning style. For that reason,
it was applied the Kolb learning style inventory that is divided in four categories
where students are rated.
After that, the action research was carried out, implementing three
workshops, which were developed by students. In these workshops, they were
able to recognize their own mistakes through the use of error correction code
(ECC), which was previously explained by the researchers. It is important to
highlight that, students writing skill was directly benefited by the improvement
accomplished during the workshops process done.
Finally, this research could be useful for new teachers’ generations, in order to help
their students to be autonomous and take the responsibility on their learning
process, which is important to achieve an integrated and better learning.
This first chapter deals with a problem detected inside the classroom of the
8th grade class in a public school of La Granja and its justification. It also includes
research questions, objectives, hypotheses and the research approach to establish
the model of investigation.
