1. Paraphrase
For strategies instruction to have an impact, students must first believe they are capable of
more independent learners. They must also believe that what causes their success or failure
is the use of effective or ineffective strategies, not luck or innate ability alone. Finally,
students must be willing to take reponsibility for their learning. Teachers need to nurture
and encourage these beliefs and may need to provide extensive support so students can
experience the success that comes by willingly using effective strategies.

Sarah Barnhardt & Pamela Beard El-Dinary (2010) highlighted that, the students can take
several ways to make strategy instruction have an impact. The first, students must believe
that they are capable of becoming more independent learners. The second, students must
know that success or failure doesnt come from their innate achievements or abilities that
they have, but from the use of effective or ineffective strategies. Thus, the students must
take responsibility for their learning. The role of the teacher is also needed here because
the teacher needs to maintain and encourage confidence and provide extensive support,
so that students can experience future success using effective strategies (p. 35).
