"as early as the first century AD, Plutarch proposed that 'a learner is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be lighted.'" Indeed, many educational philosophers including Malcolm Shepard Knowles and Paulo Freire have echoed this sentiment of student as creator, not merely a receiver, of knowledge. My question is, building on the idea of "scaffolding" as described in this article, how can a teacher provide activities that present questions for critical thinking. So much benefit comes from face-to-face interactions and so much of self-directed learning does take place in the digital realm. How can the modern instructor merge these two roles?

When it comes to online higher education, personalized learning is a concept for structuring classes that is in need of more research. In order to better define and classify personalized learning for proper application in the online classroom, how does self-direction fit into the equation? Is self-directed learning a necessary component of personalized learning? Take a peek at this article and identify both the similarities and differences between self-directed and personalized learning. Consider that in light of their differences, perhaps personalized learning is only successful if students are self--directed by nature.
