A Study of Grammar Metacognitive Strategies Employed by English Education Major Freshmen

Based on classifications of learning strategies by O'Malley & Chamot,this paper reports on a study which investigated the metacognitive strategies applied by English education major freshmen to their grammar learning.Detailed analysis of both the qualitative and quantitative data reveals the major findings as follows: 1) Much remains to be done about raising the students' awareness of adopting metacognitive strategies in their grammar learning;2)There exists significant difference in the strategic application between high-achieving and low-achieving grammar learners;3) Metacognitive strategies and grammar outcome are highly correlated.Implications for future grammar teaching are also proposed.
