Module 4: Post 4-User Generated Education

 

This website is resource that links the world of emotional intelligence and technology. The author uses the term “learner agency” as “the capability of individual human beings to make choices and act on these choices in a way that makes a difference in their lives”.

A direct connection can be found between self-directed learning, learner agency, and emotional intelligence. The discussion focuses on leveraging technology to enable, elicit, and encourage learner agency. This is of interest as I am working to present ways to doing just this in my essay, as a way of linking the Indigenous Education model to modern technological practices.
