Theses Digitization Project
The purpose of this study was to connect English language learning (ELL) student's school life with their home life.

Thirty six students completed a 'Reflections on Learning Inventory' developed by Meyer (1995). Nine of these students were interviewed in depth about what they thought learning was and how they would go about it. The interview analysis for each of the nine …
