New Model: Possibilities and Perils of Teachers’ Self-Directed Learning on Social Media
Overview
Along with Hunhui Na, I have been working on developing an updated model for self-directed learning. The context-aware self-teaching (CAST) model conceptualizes performance as a journey with six key features to keep in mind:
- Performance objective
- Starting context
- Exploration
- Difficulty level
- Content area
- External guides
We wrote a chapter about CAST in the Spanish-language volume Teachers and Social Media: Collaboration and Learning Dynamics in the Digital Environment edited by Dr. Paula Marcelo-Martínez and published by the University of Sevilla.
The English-language version of the chapter is available through Open Science Framework (OSF).
