Send us a textNaomi Fisher, an independent clinical psychologist, discusses self-directed learning and the impact it can make on children's progress and success in learning. We explore why school can contribute to feelings of low self-worth and facilitate a lack of progress and how self-directed learning can be the antidote to this.  We consider the research into self-directed learning and what it teaches us about learning disabilities and testing in schools.To of Naomi's work you can visit: https://thepsychologist.bps.org.uk/volume-33/march-2020/schools-outhttps://issuu.com/senmagazine/docs/sen102 (pg 102) https://issuu.com/margatemercury/docs/mm14web-compressed (pg 53)You can preorder Naomi's book on the subject here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Changing-Our-Minds-children-learning/dp/1472145518/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1592229469&sr=8-2--You can about self-directed learning here: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/freedom-learnTwitter: @emcurriculumContact: [email protected]: "Moodswing" by Podington BearFrom the Free Music Archive CC by NCX: @emcurriculumMusic: "Moodswing" by Poddington BearFrom the Free Music ArchiveCC by NC
