RESEARCH PAPER Topic: SELF STUDY

PART I: INTRODUCTION

1.1 Reason for choosing the topic:

In the era when science and technology developed rapidly, the school is not good enough to meetall the learning needs of students as well as the increasing demands of social life Therefore, fostering students' self-study capacity is an extremely important job in the university Only self-learning, self-enrichment of knowledge in many ways, different ways each student can

compensate for the lack of scientific knowledge about social life Since then, there is confidence

in life, work because of his comprehensive capacity The issue of self-study of learners has been deeply studied by the Party and State for many years Resolutions of the Central Vth Session 8 clearly stated: “To focus on improving the quality of teaching and learning, creating self-learningability, self-creation of students, ensuring all conditions and time for self-study for students , develop self-learning, self-training regularly and widely throughout the people.”

We can see that self-education and self-education are key issues that are extremely important in the education and training strategy of the country Within the framework of this report, we wouldlike to focus on issues related to the concept of self-study, the content of self-learning activities, the forms of self-learning, especially the training Self-study for students In order to promote the process of self-study for students, to contribute to the innovation of teaching methods, to

continuously improve the quality of training of the school

Self-learning plays a very important role, not only in school education but also in life In school the nature of learning is self-learning, the core of teaching is teaching learning, the student's

results are proportional to the self-learning capacity of the learner In addition to improving the learning outcomes, self-learning also facilitates the formation and training of the ability to work independently and creatively by each person, thereby creating conditions and opportunities for lifelong learning.

Self-learning is a necessity, a necessity of everyone in today's age, so the most important goal of the school is not equipping learners with knowledge but self-learning

1.2 Some specific evidence

In the lecture on self-learning for students in vocational schools and colleges, Prof Dr Thai DuyTuyen writes: “Self-learning is an independent activity to gain knowledge, skills and skills is to brainstorm, to think, to use the intellectual powers (observation, comparison, analysis,

synthesis ) and the motivational and emotional qualities to gain knowledge of a field of

understanding know something or experience the history and society of mankind, turning it into the possession of the learner himself ” The author Nguyen Ky in the Journal of Educational Research No 7/1998 also discusses the concept of self-learning: “Self-learning is active learner actively, self-discovery of knowledge by experience of his actions, self apprear Self-learning is aself-learning, research position, problem solving, problem solving, testing of solutions Self-learning is the process of personalizing learning” In his speech at the workshop on teaching quality improvement held in November 2005 at Hue University, Prof Tran Phuong said:

"Learning ever and always is mainly self-learning, ie knowledge science accumulated from generations of humanity into their knowledge, self-improvement of their thinking and training their skills to practice that knowledge

From the above concept can be found that the concept of self-study is always accompanied, closely linked with the concept of self The knowledge, experience and skills of each individual are formed only sustainably and effectively through the activities themselves In order to obtain,

to achieve perfection, each student must receive knowledge from many sources; Self-training skills; Self-nourishing your soul everywhere at all times

1.3 Explain the topic

Although studied long and many in the world, 'learner autonomy' is a controversial term, and sometimes educators and linguists can not fully agree What is the definition of self learning? Some famous researchers define self-learning as follows:

Self-learning is the ability to take care of your own learning (Henri Holec)

Self-study is a problem of the psychological relationship of learners with learning process and content (David Little)

Self-study is a situation in which the learner is fully responsible for all decisions related to learning and implementing those decisions (Leslie Dickinson)

Self-learning is a recognition of the rights of learners in the education system (Phil Benson) " Although there are many ways to define, the main problem is that we view self-learning as the means or ultimate goal These two views are intertwined and both can be part of our perspective

on learning a language or learning in general

1.4 Concepts of self-learning

Ho Chi Minh is a bright example of self-study The concept of self-study, he said: "Self-learning

is the way to learn automatically" and "must learn automatically learning." According to him:

"automatic learning" means self-learning completely self-control, no one waiting for reminders, not waiting for anyone to assign tasks themselves to plan their own learning plan, then self I implemented it, implemented it self-conscious, self-master of time to learn and self-assessment

of their own learning."

In learning and teaching, Professor Nguyen Canh Toan said: "Self-learning is self-brainstorming,thinking, using intellectual abilities and sometimes even muscles and other qualities of learners, both emotional motives, human life world view to occupy a certain knowledge of mankind, turning that knowledge into own possession

According to Nguyen Ky, "Self-learning is to put oneself in learning situations, in the position ofself-study, handle situations, solve problems: identify information processing problems, present knowledge, develop solutions to solve problems, handle situations ".A ```GS - TSKH Thai Duy Tuyen affirmed: "Self-learning is an independent activity of knowledge, skills, techniques,

is to brainstorm, think, use the intellectual capacity (observation, comparison comparing,

analyzing, synthesizing ) and the motor and emotional qualities to gain knowledge of a certain field of knowledge or social history experiences of mankind, "Study subjects for self-study for students in professional secondary schools and colleges and universities

In summary, the synthesis of self-study concepts of authors can offer the concept of self-study asfollows: "Self-learning is self-brainstorming thinking, using mental abilities (observation, comparison Comparisons, analysis, synthesis, ) and sometimes muscles (using practical tools), and personal qualities such as motivation, emotion, humanity, worldview do not be afraid to have difficulty, have the mind, patience, patience, passion for science, ) to occupy a certain field of knowledge of mankind, turning that field into own possession "

Independent thinking skill

Independent thinking skill is one of the most important for student who wants to self-study Independent thinker step up learn for each subject because they understand that the results they achieve Americans are seriously to educating student about their ability to independent thinking,they believe that all student of university who need to be able to think independently are good at learning in school For example, a number of the subject is not enough to transmit knowledge, sothat they must be learnt by themselves to enough knowledge With an independent thinking, theycan be learnt at home They can finish the subject with higher quickness When students develop thinking skill, it gives them many benefits For example: increase their confident, give them ability to solve problem, help another people to overcome difficulties and develop a higher enthusiasm

“Why does Vietnam need research?” (Darriulat,2007) The question is not common question, it shows almost of student in Viet Nam doesn’t active study They lack about thinking, and

creating They’ve just “a bill” or “idea, even mission” to decide by a person who have more economy or politicked No one accept the education of student go to school to receive passive knowledge, etc And create more and more citizen does not have independent thinking, maybe they will become slave How can student do to avoid thinking that? Frist, student should be practice thinking, means that they must know the true or wrong in knowledge Independent thinking might be practice and course, and they can apply to subject in school Second, student can teach each other and help them improve their oral communication skills Then, the other student in class might learn more when they are being taught by friend Student usually

advantages of hearing these ideas being explained and in way that might be closer to student of thinking Third, student might ask open ended questions, The open question help them think and solve about it, for example: what is freedom?, what should be your sight as a citizen? Thanks to

it, student can be showed their independent thinking skill has improved

Analysis problems

Referring to self study, it is matter of self-analysis and problem solving This is a skill that students need to know how to separate existing information and analyze them in the right

direction in the most detailed way to get more complete information Instead of teacher

cramming too much knowledge for students , just give the basic concept From that concept students look for their own problems and find the answer questions

A father asked his son’s teacher: “why do not you let the students remember important

knowledge?” The teacher smiled: “For human creativity, two things are more important than memorization The first is to know where to go to find the knowledge the need rather than the knowledge to remember Secondly, it is necessary to know the synthesis of that knowledge in order to carry out its own creative activity Roughly memorizing the ropes not only enhances the knowledge, but also can not make people smarter This is my point of view” (30 methods to aid your children learn well , Kim Dung , p.98 )

Training methods:

1 Recognize of the problem

When faced with a problem in learning or life, the first thing a student need to do is to look at theproblem: what does this matter say? What new knowledge? When students see the problem, theycan feel their knowledge is not enough to solve but it is really a challenge The students will have

to collect information, learn new concepts, rules and skills to solve problems

2 Determine the goal

When defining a goal, it is important to determine how you can solve the problem, what you do not know, can not be resolved Be sure to identify what you really know and take strengths, consider or note the strengths

3 List the possible solution

Students should present as many methods as possible so that they have many better options than the first solution to achieve a goals that were previously determined List them and sort out the strongest to the weakest Choose the best option or the highest probability of success

4 Simplify things

One problem has many facets so students need to learn how to simplify it Seek out simple solutions from which students can be amazed at the results achieved

5 Reassess the results of the problem

A reassessment of the result of the problem is that the student summarizes his resolution process from the source determination until the problem is resolved This gives the students an overview

of the whole problem , the solution, the resolution options, the implementation process From then on , the students will be able to draw on the experience for himself and solve problems later

In general, problem analysis is essential for student’s self-study , as they help student learn betterand remember longer term lessons In addition, the students self-analysis and understanding also help student actively solve

Reading book

Some student haven’t known how to read book yet The method to read book is very important

to self study Reading is not enough, we need to read follow the right way so that we can

understand all the information of the books If we read the book in the wrong way, there will be

no results , waste the time and effort , sometimes it makes us decrease memory and slow

thinking There are many methods to start the reading book effectively

Firstly, determining the purpose of reading books Students haven’t much time to read book , so they must specify the target what book they should read If only help to their studies but also improve their life In addition, reading purpose also helps children to read properly , match the task and the time available for reading Determining the purpose of reading to answer the

question : reading book what to do ? From that point we can answer the question: which book doyou need? How to read ? The purpose of reading also determines the direction of exploitation of the problem in the book For instance , “ when we read the Truyen Kieu , we chose another purpose to read that writings like someone investigates the life of Thuy Kieu and the plot , someone approves to read it that learns about culture life, custom , habits , ritual feudal Some people seek criticism of the prejudices and laws that oppress the woman “ [ 30 phương pháp giúpcon học tập tốt , Kim Dung ] , [ 30 methods to aid your children learn well , Kim Dung ]

Secondly, we have determined the purpose but we shouldn’t read it rushingly Before reading

we need to read thoroughly around the book Rea ding the book’s catalog is also important

Reading the index gives us an overview of the book Ausubel has done an experiment as

follows: In a university, he divided metallurgical into two groups The first group will study metallurgy from the first day The second group will give a general explanation of what “

metallurgy is “ beginning to learn As a result , the second group finally outperformed the first group ( 30 methods to aid your children learn well , Kim Dung , p.199 ) From this experiment ,

we can see that when the teacher introduces the whole concept of the lesson , the student will learn the lesson better Although the lesson may still not fully understand the meaning of the lesson, it will still help to advance the learning process

After we have thoroughly examined the content of the book , the methods of reading will help usabsorb and exploit the value of the book Here are some effective reading methods

Third, expand your vocabulary Read as much as you can from capital Fluency in

communication is one of the key determinants of success in life The more you speak, the more confident you are Research has shown that people with good vocabulary are promoted faster than those who have poor communication the problem encountered, more over, help the mind flexible and quick thinking

Self-knowledge

Self-knowledge is the most wasted time when student self-study The knowledges and skills are formed slowly or quickly, grape the problem of swallow or deep, wide or narrow… It includes: how to approach of information, process information, the intellection of knowledge, use the knowledge and generalize for information Student usually choice and receive information from various sources by reading book, using the internet, collecting workshop,… Reading is the most inexpensive and effective self study method When working with books, we must use the full power and presence of brain activity, an optimal activity in the process of self-learning In spite

of receiving knowledge, student can open, ask question or make suggestion after reading the book or at least to write and expert of knowledge It's a creative of reading Information

processing in the process of self-learning never happens in the unconscious, which requires the procession, the new processing can be used This process can be carried out by analyzing, evaluating, summarizing, compiling, comparing In the application of scientific knowledge information to solve related problems such as practice exercises, discussion, handling situations, writing harvest, study, general students often encounter many difficulties At times, a large amount of document is found but the classification of content to interpret a problem is not
