LAP Lambert Academic Publishing Language Learning Strategies: Reconsidering SILL: for the learners of digital world

The book provides a new look to the SILL as reportedly the most comprehensive inventory in the language learning strategies in the light of changing dynamics of digital era. A sample group of Net-Generation tertiary ESL learners are studied in a mixed-method approach study and the analysis and discussions are made based on the qualitative and quantitative data which are constantly compared to the SILL strategy categories to notice differences in the strategy use or emerging trends in the language learning strategies used by Net-Geners. The findings and suggestions for reconsidering SILL should help shed some light on language learning field in the new millennium and should be particularly useful to professionals in curriculum designing and language faculty to enhance the efficiency of language learning efforts through the almost limitless affordances provided by computer and network in the digital era.
