This blog post talks about self-directed learning, which is when students take charge of their learning. Malcolm Knowles introduced this concept, highlighting that it involves assessing learning needs, setting personal goals, choosing appropriate materials and strategies, and evaluating one's own progress.

All kids have the potential to become self-directed learners. By fostering a learning environment that encourages independence and choice, children can develop into confident individuals. This approach helps them make decisions, solve problems, and take responsibility for their own learning success. For further information, please visit PopSmart Academy website.
