George Siemens has posted a small selection from a Jay Cross publication entitled “Improving workplace performance.” In the selection, Jay states that knowledge workers are taking the responsibility to manage their own learning for what they need to know for their jobs. I see teachers and librarians as knowledge workers. I see professional educators assisting students on their journey to become knowledge workers.
In the life of a teacher, does self-directed learning hold implications for staff development? How about learning communities? How does self-directed learning on the part of the teacher change classroom teaching practices? Are there implications for the student as well as for the teacher?
