Abstract
Often seen as a prerequisite to university education, students’ autonomy is a competence which should be developed throughout the learning process. This paper will first review the concept of autonomy and autonomy learning in order to take a fresh look at educational methods and the different roles of social agents inherent to the teaching/learning process. Then this article will look into the potential of the action-oriented approach within that new didactic configuration. Finally, the importance of the European Language Portfolio (ELP) will be highlighted as an operational tool supporting the autonomy learning process.
