The benefits of teaching and learning self-study in the educational process

Аннотация

With an increasing number of new technologies and an expanding global population, self-studying is on the rise. Education is no longer confined to just the classroom, and some would argue that the classroom model is outdated and does not meet the intellectual needs of individuals in such an interconnected society. In this article, we share results from a self-study community of practice that describes how students learned self-study during the period of education. Self-study is the method of learning on their own, a method of direct studying outside the classroom. Within self-study there is no direct supervision, the study is done by student on their own. The results of the study include a description of learning that grew out of engaging in the self-study process. We offer our experience of learning self-study to provide readers with support, encouragement, and direction for the teaching and learning of self-study methods.
