Abstract

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is crucial in language acquisition, especially for non-major students enrolled in English as an optional course. This research examines the self-regulated learning (SRL) capacities of 227 non-major students in English at Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade, utilizing a mixed-methods methodology to collect quantitative and qualitative data. Questionnaires gathered quantitative data by evaluating students' viewpoints and actions across the three phases of self-regulated learning: forethought, performance, and self-reflection. Additionally, semi-structured interviews with seven individuals provided enhanced qualitative insights. The findings revealed that students held positive perceptions of their self-regulated learning (SRL) skills, and they discovered significant correlations between SRL aspects and basic English results. These findings highlight the significance of self-regulated learning (SRL) in improving language acquisition and provide potential avenues for focused interventions to bolster students' self-regulation in English education.
