Abstract: Metacognitive strategies have been proved to be the higher-order executive skill, which play a critical role in language learning. There is a close correlation between metacognitive strategies and language learning proficiency. Through teaching and training, those strategies can be acquired and correspondingly impact language learning proficiency. Since English pronunciation learning is a complex and often problematical one, there are many factors that conflict with and militate against the teacher’s teaching target. This study is intended to seek a more effective and practical approach to improving students’ English pronunciation by adopting a metacognitive strategy training approach to pronunciation learning.

摘要:大量研究证实元认知策略是高层次的语言学习管理技能,它在语言学习中具有极其重要的作用。元认知策略和语言学习能力之间有紧密的相关联系,通过教学和训练,这些元认知策略可以习得并相应地影响语言学习水平。由于影响语音学习因素的多样性和复杂性,使得语音教学一直以来都是语言教学的薄弱环节。本研究旨在通过借助元认知策略的教学,使学生的英语语言学习能力和学习效果得到提高。
