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

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.

Heutagogia e o olhar sobre a aprendizagem do século XXI: 1- protagonizar a própria aprendizagem 2- educadores mantem foco no processo de aprendizagem ao inves do conteudo 3- evita-se aprendizagem focada no educador 4- migra-se para o "mundo da aprendizagem" 5- explora e aprende praticando auto escolha e acao auto direcionada 6- avancar alem da disciplina #avancee

This learning theory may be beneficial in certain settings. Anyone applying it already?

Humility makes sense. Socrates knew that he was ignorant, and therefor was ready to learn. If I think that I already know a thing, or do not need to know a thing, then my mind is closed to it. All learning starts from a point of ignorance, and then move to greater approximations of understanding until mastery.

Absolutely! Most are unable to do so, unwilling to learn .. Being ignorant is fine, but lack of humility won't ever help

This article is part of a larger, on-going effort to help connect teachers and other learning professionals with the neuroscience of learning.
