“…During the COVID-19 pandemic, technology-based methods, tools, and materials have got more common in language teaching and learning [25]. Technology allows students to connect with a broad network and developed communication platforms with educators, parents, and stakeholders [26]. With the growth of technology, games have become more essential in the field of language acquisition.…”

Learner Autonomy: Algerian EFL Teachers’ Beliefs

“…Furthermore, autonomous learners can be identified by specific characteristics, including being methodical and disciplined in their learning, logical and analytical in thinking, reflective and self-aware, and exhibiting persistent curiosity, motivated, flexible, and being proficient in interpersonal and interrelated areas; they have perseverance and are responsible and creative, independent, and selfsufficient [13]. Another fundamental aspect for developing self-sufficient students is to take into consideration the differences among them in order to make learning completely unique for each individual [13,14]. erefore, with the development of autonomy within learners, these differences, such as motivation and learners' abilities and competencies, are no longer a hindrance in the language class.…”

“…A few decades ago, language learning underwent significant reforms in the communicative approach [14,21].…”
