Abstract

As one element of a self-directed learning programme at the Arabian Gulf University in Bahrain, students make a contribution to the self-access centre (SAC) in the form of a language learning worksheet or other English-enhancing activity. The student contributions are evaluated by other students and added to the SAC materials banks. This initiative is aimed primarily at exposing students to a variety of learning tasks that might suggest new practice possibilities, and at increasing their personal investment in developing the SAC as a dynamic entity to serve their particular language learning needs. The potential benefits of this type of activity to the learners and their institution are discussed.
