Chapter 11: Group Tutorials: The ‘Missing Link’ in My Own Learner Autonomy Journey. By Ruth Wilkinson
Abstract
This paper describes the implementation of group ‘learning to learn’ tutorials in a Spanish University. These tutorials were a key component in an action research project designed to help students take greater control of their own learning. The results show the benefits of such an activity whilst revealing changes that need to be made in the teacher’s approach in order to ensure the effectiveness of the tutorials.
