Second language classroom implications. Many implications for second language education flow from the concept of learner autonomy. For example, the use of small groups–including pairs–represents one means of enhancing learner autonomy.

Group activities help students harness that power and by doing so they build their pool of learning resources because they can receive assistance from peers, not just from the teacher. Second language classroom implications. Group activities have become more common in second language education. For cooperative learning to be successful in second language education, a number of issues must be addressed.
