The learner's contribution to the self-access centre

Abstract

This paper describes an experiment in which users investigated and evaluated the resources available in a university self-access centre, producing leaflets and reports for other potential users and the centre's staff as a piece of language-learning ‘project work’. The involvement of students in improving the infrastructure, in providing support to other users, and in publicizing the facilities available, creates potential for more efficient use and more democratic control of the learning resources which it is the task of such a centre to provide. It also provides additional opportunities for language learning and for learning-how-to-learn.
