This study was carried out to investigate the language learning strategies
adopted by undergraduate ESL learners at UiTM Shah Alam. It focuses on
identifying the types of language learning strategies adopted by three groups,
advanced (30 subjects), intermediate (40 subjects), and elementary (50 subjects)
ESL learners. It also looks at the language learning strategies used in three
different settings; in the English classroom, informally outside the classroom and
preparing for English examinations.
A total number of 120 first semester bachelor's degree students from three
classes from the three faculties participated in this study. The three faculties were
Faculty of Business Management and Administration (46 students), Faculty of
Performing Arts (34 students) and Faculty of Civil Engineering (40 students).
These faculties were selected to represent the three major clusters of all the
faculties in UiTM i.e. Administration and Business, Social and Humanities and
Science and Technology.
The instrumentation utilized for this study was a questionnaire adapted
from Oxford (1989) and Muhammad Amin Embi (2000). The questionnaire
consists of two major sections, Section 1: Background Information (10 items) and
Section 2: Strategy Inventory For Language Learning (49 items). Section 2 are
divided into three parts, Part A: The Way you Learn English in the Classroom (17
items), Part B: The Way you Learn English Informally Outside the Classroom (23
items) and Part C: The Way you Prepare for your Englis h Examinations (9 items).
The questionnaire was distributed in three different sessions in September
2005. All the subjects were given 45 minutes to answer the questionnaire, which
were collected on the same day. The data collected was analyzed using frequency
distribution. The focus of the calculation was to determine the frequencies,
percentages and means of the subjects' responses to the statements in the
questionnaire . All the data are presented, analyzed and interpreted based on four
specific research questions. |
