North Campus, Room D236

Time: 10:50 a.m. - 12:35 p.m.

The transition to post-secondary studies from the high school environment is a time of new independence and responsibility for most students. While students may look forward to this change, they may not have the skills required to successfully negotiate the new realities of the adult academic environment. Research indicates that to become a self-directed learner, students must develop their sense of competence, relatedness, and autonomy. This session will explore means by which these sensibilities can be promoted in the classroom environment, laying the foundation for learner autonomy as a post-secondary student, and as a graduate to their professional field.

As a result of this research Insights has developed a support system or map, which can be used to enhance a person’s self-awareness and self-understanding, including “insights into their communications style”.
