Se développer en tant qu'apprenant indépendant (document en anglais)

Managing your daily work, your learning and study, and other aspects of your life (family, friends, and other activities) will be a challenge. It will require determination, motivation, the ability to manage time, resources, energy and learning processes, and the ability to maximise learning opportunities. Work based and distance learning particularly requires learners to maximise their independent learning potential, which means first of all recognising their strengths and weaknesses as independent learners. They can then play to their strengths and begin to improve any weak areas. It is important therefore as you begin your WBDL programme to be aware of your strengths as a learner and to identify areas that may need development. You will need to think about this throughout your studies. Please complete the Independent Learner Inventory .Save as a word file for your Portfolio.

Developing yourself as an independent learner

The aim of this inventory is to help you to think about your approach to learning. Everyone is unique and there is no ‘right’ approach to learning. By learning how we learn and by exploring new and different approaches to learning it is possible to become even more effective learners. We hope that this tool will help to stimulate your learning.

However, the learner is encouraged to take responsibility for constructing and carrying out his own learning and monitor his progress toward achieving his learning goals, and self-assess his learning outcomes.
