2002 3 ( 89 ) Ξ : : ; ; Abstract : This study reports a metacognitive strategy training program and investigates the effects of the training in an attempt to cultivate learner autonomy and encourage students to manage their own studies. Students were trained on four metacognitive strategies i. e. becoming aware of learning processes self2evaluation establishment of objectives and planning. The findings showed that most studentsπmetacognitive awareness and ability to use those strategies have been enhanced. The theoretical and pedagogical implications are also discussed.
