The second half of the last century witnessed the emergence of a new system that enables students to learn by themselves without the help of a teacher, relying on their own individual abilities. This training kit explains the concept of independent learning as the process by which learners teach themselves, using programmed instruction or any other self-learning materials or resources, to achieve clear objectives without direct help from the teacher.
This training kit also reviews the objectives of self-directed learning, represented in meeting learners' needs for freedom in decision-making and choosing the method by which they learn, and a love of self-reliance and independent work, which reinforces the importance of self-directed learning and applies its various methods and strategies that enable the learner to build their educational journey with confidence and independence. This kit serves as a practical reference for teachers wishing to prepare their students for independent self-directed learning.
Students at various stages, teachers, and anyone interested in developing self-directed learning skills.
