Although there is no agreed definition of a mentor and their role at present, it is the prospective learner's responsibility to check the background and calibration of the educating staff.
A self-directed learner takes responsibility for his or her knowledge production by becoming behaviorally and metacognitively active, and increased autonomy probably allows the participant to tailor knowledge production to his or her specific needs [ 12, 14].
A major process in learning outside school is guided participation, where learners take responsibility for accomplishing tasks guided by a more experienced person.
Contrary to Cohen et al. (2012) findings that learners' family responsibilities and hours of employment can impede their process of learning, it is not the case here since they are drivers to the blended learning process.
When this occurred, students experienced tension between their role as a learner and their responsibility to take good care of their patient.
For instance, learner-centered and cooperative teaching and learning approaches are being used extensively, where learners take more responsibility for their work and regulate their time and attention between the tasks they have to perform.
In this case, the learners shunned the responsibility of peer WCF and indirect WCF that is in marked contrast with the goal of L2 learning pedagogy which aims at helping learners to reach autonomy.
SRL is closely linked to the concept of autonomy, particularly in the aspects of metacognition, motivation, and learning behavior (Schunk and Zimmerman 1998; Zimmerman 1986), which enables learners to take responsibility for their own learning.
The results support the status of these students as adult learners to take responsibility for their learning and demonstrate their willingness to activity engage.
Strategies-based instruction is a learner-centered teaching method which enables learners to take more responsibility for their learning: "Although initial instruction is heavily scaffold, it is gradually lessened to the point that student can assume responsibility for using the strategies independently" (Rubin et al., 2007, p. 142).
