This research is concerned with learner autonomy in the Algerian EFL context in general and middle education in particular. Through this study, the researcher aims to discover to wh ich extent the notion of learner autonomy exists in our middle schools. Therefore, a case study has been designed to investigate both teachers' and lear ners' perceptions and attitudes towards autonomous learning in EFL classroom.The current
study contains four chapters: Chapter one is a literature review that covers general areas of learner autonomy; definitions, characteristics, principles and approaches. Chapter two provides an overview of ELT situation in Algeria, EFL status in the Algerian middle education and the newly introduce d approach, i.e. the Competency- Based Approach with reference to the notion of learner autonomy in this approach. In addition, the second chapter deals with a methodological design in order to answer the research questions. A triangulation method is used in this work; it includes data collection from questionnaires that have been put to middle school teachers and pupils, a classroom observation and an interview with the inspector of English in the city of El-Bayadh. The data collected from these research instruments were analysed quantitatively and qualitatively in the third chapter where some general findings have been drawn. Chapter four provides suggestions and recommendations about how to promote learner autonomy in Algerian EFL classroom .In fact, the research findings show that the notion of learner autonomy is still considered as a challenge for learners as well as teachers in Algeria n middle schools. Therefore, this work is an attempt to reveal the hindrances that impede our pupils from being autonomous in their learning proce ss, and to provide practical implications for both EFL teachers and learners to overcome the barriers they commonly meet when trying to be involved in autonomous learning.
