Abstract
CARDENAS-NARVAEZ, Juan-Carlos. Relationship between learning strategies and academic performance in students of English Pedagogy. Rev. iberoam. educ. super [online]. 2019, vol.10, n.27, pp.115-135. ISSN 2007-2872. https://doi.org/10.22201/iisue.20072872e.2019.27.343.
The objective of the study was to relate the learning strategies used by students of English Pedagogy at a Chilean university, represented by the score reached in the ACRA Learning Strategies Questionnaire (Acquisition, Codification, Recovery, Metacognitives and Support) of Román et al. (1994, 2013) with their academic performance. A descriptive correlational study was carried out. The sample included 60 students (45 women and 15 men), with age ranges between 18 and 21 years. The results indicate an acceptable correlation coefficient. It is concluded that the low frequency of use of some learning strategies proves the need to systematically reinforce them.
