Candy on self-direction

Candy (1991) suggests that there are four distinct but related phenomenon. Self-direction as:

• a personal attribute (personal autonomy)

• the willingness and capacity to conduct one's own education (self management).

• a mode of organizing instruction in formal settings (learner control)

• the individual, non-institutional pursuit of learning opportunities in the 'natural social setting' (autodidaxy).
