5. Self-assessment  + self-assessment can help to make learners more active, to realize that they have the ultimate responsibility for learning.  Self-assessment can help learners to locate their own strengths and weaknesses and then get them to think about what they need to do,in order to get better marks. By encouraging such individual reflection, self-assessment can begin to make students see their learning in personal terms. As Chamot and O’Malley point out (1994: 119)
