N1  - Also available in ebook format; Includes bibliographical references (p. 235-248) and indexes; "O'Malley and Chamot review the literature on learning strategies, describe and classify learning strategies in second language learning, and discuss why learning is affected in a positive manner when such strategies are used. The authors present instructional models for learning-strategy training that teachers can apply to their own classes. The material is based on current research in second language acquisition and cognitive theory." (Book Cover); CONTENTS
