Teaching Students to Become Self-Determined Learners

by Yong Zhao, Michael Wehmeyer, Michael L. Wehmeyer

Book Overview

Children are born learning machines who want to learn and can organize and manage their own learning. Unfortunately, today children have little choice over what they do in school and how and when they do it. Children prepared in this "other-determined" manner will be poorly equipped to navigate an adult world requiring that they act autonomously and self-direct learning to acquire skills in rapidly changing environments.
