| Description | Education has become more accessible to people with the advent of technological assistance. Open and Distance Learning (ODL) is one such avenue which utilizes technology for imparting knowledge with the convenience of students as its prime objective. This convenience is present in terms of the student deciding the time, place and pace of study. Although there are various factors that lead to a successful impartation of knowledge, ‘learning outcomes and students achievement’ constitute the major building blocks in the field of education. Though academic achievement of students depends on a multitude of factors including the students desire to learn, instructional strategies, study materials, students’ study skills, etc. In this course, we discuss the skills of learning independently. Learning skills have been understood differently by different people and have been used interchangeably with study skills. Nevertheless, they all talk about competencies or skills associated with acquiring, organizing, synthesizing, remembering, and using information and ideas read in books, observed or listened to in different situations. Learning is a life-long process, and in the whole spectrum of education, our focus is on enhancing certain competencies and skills in learning. Hence, skills in learning refer to students’ development of confidence and competence in learning. While confidence in learning depends on the students’ motivation, self-interest, positive attitude to learn, etc., competence in learning comes from specific activities a student is engaged in while doing a particular learning task. |
