Özet

Use of language learning strategies can play a very important role on the way to gain success and learner autonomy in language learning. They can be more powerful learning tools provided that they are chosen properly according to the situations language learners will be faced with. For learners’ to receive strategy training is very important in helping them with tackling the language situations they will encounter. Use of learning strategies serves as an effective way for learners to overcome such difficulties. According to Willliams and Burden (1997), use of appropriate language learning strategies has a vital contribution to make to language learning success, which underlines the significance of the incorporation of strategy training in teaching a foreign language. The present study had two main purposes. Firstly, it aimed to investigate the effects of vocabulary strategy training on vocabulary learning and, secondly, it aimed to investigate the effects of vocabulary strategy training on learner autonomy at intermediate level in the preparatory classes of a foundation university.
