What is LASIG?

LASIG is the Learner Autonomy Special Interest Group, one of 16 IATEFL Special Interest Groups. Originally formed in 1986 by a small group of educators devoted to promoting learner autonomy, LASIG now has members from over 50 countries.

Our main goals are:

to address the interests and needs of students, teachers, learning advisers, teacher educators and researchers who are interested in autonomy in language learning and all that it implies,
to raise awareness of issues related to autonomy in language learning,
to explore, investigate and develop practices and strategies for the implementation of language learner autonomy,
to provide a forum for discussion through publications and events,
to offer opportunities for networking globally and cross-culturally.

LASIG is organised by a group of unpaid volunteers. We invite all members to help out in determining the direction of the SIG.
