Write an essay in which you identify an example from your own life of ?self-directed learning? as defined by Steltenpohl, Shipton and Villines:
Self-directed learning refers to being proactive, taking the initiative in learning, compared with teacher-directed learning where the learner is told what to do and how to do it, and perhaps coached through the process.
In your essay, identify something you have learned without a ?teacher? instructing you, something that you learned because you wanted or needed to learn it. The example you choose should be a case in which you may have gotten help from others, but in which you weren?t formally taught in a classroom environment.
In your essay, be sure to make specific references to the quotation. Also be sure that your essay answers each of the following questions:
1. How did you go about learning it? Describe the process of your learning.
2. What do you think this example tells us about you as a learner and how you learn most
effectively?
3. Think of this as a way of introducing yourself to your mentors: How would it be useful to your primary mentor?
