Basic Skills Resource Center: A Pilot Study of Learning Strategies Training with Students of English as a Second Language in the Army
Abstract
The pilot study described in this report, a part of the Basic Skills Resource Center resesrch component, was undertaken to investigate the possibility of providing learning strategies instruction in the context of the Army's English as a second language (ESL) program. A formative evaluation of strategies training, which would facilitate the acquisition of speaking and listening skills in the acquisition of English as a second language, suggests that such training can be incorporated into the DLI/ESL (Defense Language Institute/English as a Second Language) curriculum.
