Mirjam Neelen & Paul A. Kirschner Recently, we blogged about ‘lifelong learning’ and while doing research for it, we regularly ran into the term ‘heutagogy’. It also caught our attention because it had frequently popped up on social media in the last couple of years. Initially, we thought it was similar to ‘self-directed learning’ (which…

While acknowledging that the whole concept of self-determination – or ‘Google ===> Any learning theory is only as good as the way in which it is applied and worked through, and we have seen it produce highly successful results where correctly applied, in the right circumstances. <=== Watch this space for chapter and verse, as we will soon be publishing case studies of several recent programmes that feature high levels of learner self-direction.

In this age of abundance of information, shifting classroom pedagogy isn't nearly enough to make learning in school more relevant and authentic for the learner. Self-directed learning (andragogy), and self-determined learning (heutagogy) are the ideals necessary in making students "future ready" to live and learn in a web connected world. While original research applied these concepts to mature learners, it has become apparent that even young children have an abundant capacity for recognizing and directing their own learning. Anyone who has observed toddlers learning how to walk and talk understand the motivation and skill development that quickly develops during these processes. Considered by some to be on a learning continuum, self-directed learning and self-determined learning have at least one distinct difference. What is this difference, and why should educators care? - See more at: http://rtschuetz.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/self-directed-vs-self-determined.html?spref=tw#sthash.oSVChVeN.dpuf Learn more: - http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?tag=andragogy - http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?tag=Heutagogy Via Gust MEES

Great insights- this can be applied to other fields as well such as learning techniques to modulate stress and anxiety

Since "upwards of ninety percent of our learning will occur outside formal educational settings" (Jennings, 2010), in the age of abundance of information, students should be motivated to reflect on how they are learning. That is what is self-directed learning

Interesting idea for ePortfolio pedagogy. Maybe the idea is to consider andragogy and heutagogy as distinct from pedagogy, or at least an evolution from it. |
