About the Webinar
What are the skills your students need to develop to become better at learning independently? We will look at four areas of essential skills. Firstly, how do they plan and organize their learning? Secondly, what are effective learning habits and strategies, and how can your students develop the ones that work best for them? Thirdly, what can they do to maintain motivation when learning at home? And finally, how can they become better at monitoring and evaluating their own learning? For each area, we will look at what is really needed, and go through some practical learning activities that you can use with your students to help them develop those skills.
This webinar was held on the UN International Day of Education.
