Self-Directed Learning: Exploring the Digital Opportunity - Mary Grush, Campus Technology
Virginia Commonwealth University associate professor of English W. Gardner Campbell considers why we should explore our digital opportunities for self-directed learning. "So at some point, self-directed learning, which is now an absolutely vital concept in higher learning, has to be considered as part of a larger conceptual framework. The larger framework incorporates the institution, the curriculum, and the faculty that you asked about. That larger framework should stress the role of expert-directed study and expert-facilitated encounters, especially in opportunities for self-directed learning."
