Three Variations of Student-Directed Learning: A Research Report.

Allender, Jerome S.; Silberman, Melvin L.

Journal of Humanistic Psychology, v19 n1 p79-83 Win 1979

Three models were conceptualized for facilitating student-directed learning: teacher-guided, group-planned, and individual-oriented. Undergraduates in an educational psychology course were studied using the Involvement Behavior Questionnaire and the Inquiry Fluency Task. All three experimental treatments encouraged student involvement. The individual-oriented group was strongest on inquiry. (SJL)
