Abstract

Accompanying the development and expansion of autonomous learning ability in the field of foreign language education in recent years, international scholars have conducted research on how to enhance learners’ autonomous learning ability and the related influencing factors. Most of these studies have mainly focused on internal factors affecting autonomous learning ability, with relatively few examining external factors such as teacher support and peer support. This study aimed to explore the external factors in the English learning process of college students, specifically teacher support and peer support, and further investigate their impact on the autonomous learning ability of Chinese college students. The research objectives were as follows: 1) To analyze the current status of autonomous learning ability, including teacher support, and peer support for college students in the process of learning English; 2) To analyze teacher support and peer support which affect various dimensions of autonomous learning ability of college students during their English learning process; 3) To analyze the differences in teacher support, peer support, autonomous learning ability, and its various dimensions based on demographic characteristics (gender, grade) of college students.

Through the quantitative research method, a questionnaire survey was administered to 590 college students of Shanghai University, China. After excluding invalid responses due to incorrect or missing data, 553 valid questionnaires were obtained, with a response rate of 93.7%. The research results indicated that: 1) College students’ teacher support, peer support, and autonomous learning ability were at a moderately high level, but and there was still room for improvement; 2) Teacher support and peer support both had a positive impact on the enhancement of college students’ autonomous learning ability; 3) There were no significant differences in teacher support, peer support, and autonomous learning ability across different demographic characteristics of college students. Based on these findings, valuable suggestions were provided for enhancing the autonomous learning ability of Chinese college students in their English learning process.
