dc.description.abstractThe present study investigates students' and teachers' attitudes towards the role of the internet to develop learners' autonomy. The problem within university students is learning dependency. The reason behind this problem may be related to the lack of support that the teacher should provide students with in order to encourage them to rely on themselves, or maybe because of the unawareness of students concerning the importance of autonomous learning. In our research we have focused on fostering autonomy using the internet which has proved to be the most used technology in the field of education. Thus, we hypothesize that Students and teachers have a positive attitude towards the effectiveness of the internet in enhancing learners' autonomy. To prove this hypothesis, a questionnaire has been designed and administered to both teachers and first year master students to gain more information about their opinions concerning the use the Internet in fostering autonomy in learning. Results have shown a positive attitude from both teachers and students towards the Internet as an effective tool to foster autonomous learning. Students and teachers did not deny the usefulness of the internet ,but they declared some limitations concerning its use which is plagiarism, they mention that although the internet can provide learner with millions of resources, this huge number of resources may lead them to plagiarism and learning dependency.ar
