ABSTRACT

This chapter presents individual language-learning-strategy (LLS) reports on the interviewees, in order to obtain an in-depth insight into how the interviewed students used LLSs and the factors that influenced their LLS use. This chapter focuses on 10 students, who were enrolled in the lower-beginning, higher-beginning, and intermediate levels of the online Chinese-language programme, respectively. These individual reports provide deep and rich data that enable us to understand the interviewed students’ learning behaviour and their effective LLS use in completing various language-learning tasks, especially in the tasks that required collaborative learning. Furthermore, these reports help us better understand the impacts of individual-learner characteristics (e.g., learning goals, learning motives, age) on the students’ LLS use.
