<![CDATA[The purpose of this research is to investigate how students of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) view self-assessment (SA) in writing and the challenges they encounter while implementing it. A mixed-method approach is utilized in this study. The overall number of participants in the study was 115, all of whom were students majoring in English language teaching. The quantitative data was collected using a questionnaire that consisted of 15 statements. The questionnaire addressed the question linked to the students' perspectives on SA. In the meantime, 20 students of varying cognitive levels participated in a focused group discussion to gather qualitative data. The results show that students generally have a reasonable opinion toward their self-evaluations. Students learning autonomy, responsibility, and motivation are all significantly impacted by SA, while teacher evaluation anxiety is much reduced. However, because this is their first time utilizing self-assessment, they struggle when attempting to use it in their work. The difficulties occurred because it was a new concept for them. According to the findings of this study, more practice should be put into adopting self-assessment in ELT, not just in writing but also in other language skills.]]>
