Students Learning Strategies in EFL Remote Learning Environment in English Language Learners at Majalengka University

Abstract

Language learning strategies (LLSs) are believed to be influenced by individual differences as well as environmental and contextual factors. Therefore, the effective use of LLSs is determined by various factors, including both learning and learner variables. This dynamic and complex nature of LLSs renders it appropriate to use a qualitative approach to undertake research into this issue. This paper details the qualitative findings from English LLSs among student at Majalengka University. The data was gathered from Questionaries with 10 English as a foreign language (EFL). Interviews were conducted in lasting 30 to 40 minutes. The interview questions for students focused on their general attitudes and lived experiences of LLSs. Similarly, the interview questions for EFL staff were structured around their general attitudes. The interview data were translated into English, rechecked, and thematically analyzed. The findings are of a textual and interpretative nature with emerging themes and issues related to the attitudes towards and actual use of LLSs among the target learners.
