Self-directed Learning Readiness Study for Undergraduate Students: A Case Study of Principles and Art of Photography
I discovered that most instructors
emphasized the Traditional Learning
and Rote Learning.
Researcher: Suthin Rojprasert
To address the problem, I decided to use
SDL as a new method to see whether or
not SDL is suitable for students.
Background of the research
Self-directed Learning Readiness Study for Undergraduate Students: A Case Study of Principles and Art of Photography

I want to learn anytime
anywhere and my teacher
will be as facilitator.
Self-directed learning (SDL)

The result of my research about SDLR are as follow: supporting
students and learning activities develop their ability and skills to
gain knowledge by themselves. SDLR gives instructor opportunity to
listen to the opinions of students and use instructional media for
problem-solving and emphasizes facilitation of learning.
Researcher: Suthin Rojprasert
Knowles (1975) found that SDL is more
aligned with our natural tendencies and
psychological development processes. The
responsibility is on the learners to take
initiative and develop abilities of self-
directed inquiry.

Therefore, my students can learn more
and believe to be more creative.
