Abstract :
Mediated Learning Experience (MLE) theory suggests that the quantity and quality of learning interactions guided by a mediator significantly impact a learner s cognitive and psychological development, as well as their ability to become autonomous and independent learners. This research aimed to apply MLE theory in pedagogy by designing a grammar lesson plan based on MLE principles, specifically focusing on the present continuous tense. By operationalizing and activating MLE parameters within a grammar class, this study sought to explore the potential benefits of implementing MLE in educational settings. The integration of MLE in pedagogy not only transforms the role of teachers into facilitators of lifelong learning and mentors for fellow educators but also enables learners to develop problem-solving heuristics and cultivate essential skills for autonomous learning and critical thinking in the contemporary knowledge-based era.
