THE IMPACT OF USING STRATEGIES IN LEARNING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE...
Since the old belief that the teacher teaches and student learn that are taught is no longer valid,the attention has focused on learners and how the process of their learning take place, because now on the whole learning process is more centred on learner and they become more responsibles for their own learning. It means that learners need to be conscious about their individual learning processes and strategies that they should to use in each step of their processes.
taking this into account, is important konwing how to act autonomously in each learning situation through the application of learning strategiesto second language learning; for that, in Anderson's theory strategies have been represented and described as a set of actions that are fine-tuned until they become procedural knowledge.
by other hand, Faerch and Kasper suggest us declarative knowledge as a conscious manner, while procedural knowledge tends to be more automatic ad is activated without awareness; taking as reference the previous contributions, we as learners need to keep in mind working on both looking for a succesful acquisition and learning of a second language.
The use of those strategies have left a great impact on learners because we can to manage in a good way our own learning process. Using the new technologies and combining them with the new resources and methods that us expose to diary the community eduactiva; likewise, appearing diverse mechanisms to evaluate and to improve at the same time our previous knowledge of this second language that we are acquiring and learning.
Finally, i would like to do a called to the autonomous work by learners and we as future teachers...to search and investigate dialy with the purpose of improve our previous knowledge, offering new strategies and a new way to teach and learn a second language.
