Introduction

Recently, the focus of language learning and teaching which is more learner centered has led to a more demanding role of teachers and learners. One of the most important changes is that teachers are viewed as the source of knowledge, instead as a facilitator or monitor (Richards, 2006:5). Littlewood (2002:91) asserted that teachers might face conflicts with their pedagogical role, which has traditionally required them to evaluate all learners’ performance according to clearly defined criteria. At the same time, this shift calls for greater learner’s participation and responsibility in learning process. From this perspective, the teacher seems to be less “prescriptive” in dominating the class and is less authoritarian as learning is now seen to be an individual activity as well as a socially-shared experience. The learner is no longer a passive recipient but an active participant in the classroom process. In order to fulfill this active role, learners also need to develop an awareness of themselves as learners.
