THE SELF-TRAINING IN A COGNITIVE SOCIETY

Abstract

The current concept of self directed learning picks up the tradition of the best active pedagogy, to which the effective principles of constructivism of the learning, the postmodern sociological perspective and the necessity are added of materializing the permanent formation. It supposes that the initiative and administration of the learning process is in hands of the own fellow that learns, without excluding for it the external help of the educational one with tutorials functions. The self directed learning constitutes the base from the teaching to distance, so that its principles must be present as much in the planning as in the application process. The didactic materials will foment the elaboration of the knowledge low significance approaches and dynamism. In the article examples are presented of how to make it. The motivation is substantial part of the self directed learning and fundamental requirement for the continuity and success from the learning to distance, since it implies a control exercise on the part of the own fellow that learns. In the labor environment, the self directed learning has its parallelism in the tele-work whose peak is so much fruit of the sociological variables of our times like of the development of the telematic one. Tele-work and self directed learning are two concretions of oneself perspective of elaboration of the knowledge and, for it same, both share possibilities and limitations.
