Experiential learning
I'll draw on my experiences with this P2PU course http://p2pu.org/en/groups/diy-u-getting-started-with-self-learning/people/
and the people in it, as well as personal experiences as a student and teacher elsewhere.
This course will become read-only in the near future. Tell us at community.p2pu.org if that is a problem.
Learner-centered approaches like DIY U are often caricatured as placing the learner in isolation. In fact the origins of the terms “university” and “college” both emphasize the importance of the group. This path will explore the important relationships that must be negotiated by the independent learner both face-to-face and virtually: with mentors, with peers, with the broader society, and with themselves.
I'm giving a talk on this topic at the MobilityShifts conference on 10/14/11 and I need to expand my knowledge! http://mobilityshifts.org/conference/program/program-friday-october-14-2011/
