Teach with Learning in Mind

Today we talk about how to foster self-directed learning behaviours in your students and how that affects student learning. In this episode, I draw from a publication by AOSIS, Directed Learning for the 21st Century: Implications for Higher Education. AOSIS maximises the opportunities for Higher Education Institutions in South Africa to support research and development through publishing scholarly books in all scientific fields. You should check them out; some super publications are free to download. I refer to various models of self-directed learning, as mentioned in Chapter 1, and concepts discussed in Chapters 2 and 3 in this podcast.

Let's take a minute to remember how to be teachers, not subject matter experts.
