1 Goal setting tools

One of the first steps in self-directed e-learning is to set clear and realistic goals for yourself. You need to know what you want to learn, why you want to learn it, and how you will measure your progress. Goal setting tools can help you define your learning objectives, break them down into manageable steps, and track your achievements. Some examples of goal setting tools are SMART goals, GROW model, and OKR framework.

2 Learning management systems

A learning management system (LMS) is a software platform that allows you to access, organize, and manage your online learning content. It can also provide you with features such as quizzes, assessments, feedback, certificates, and analytics. An LMS can help you support your self-directed e-learning by giving you a structured and flexible way to access and complete your courses, modules, or activities. Some examples of LMSs are Moodle, Canvas, and Coursera.

Nearpod doesn't consider itself an LMS because it doesn't involve rostering. However, it is an especially effective way to manage and deliver interactive learning content. It promotes interactivity and student-centered learning with diverse pre-made content across all subject areas as well as tools for creating your own.

I highly recommend Perusall as a social tool for any reading assignments, which many eLearning courses do include. It also increases engagement in reading – important for any self-directed learning experience.

5 Personal learning environments

A personal learning environment (PLE) is a collection of tools, resources, and services that you use to support your own learning. It can include any combination of online and offline elements, such as blogs, podcasts, books, journals, videos, games, or apps. A PLE can help you support your self-directed e-learning by giving you more autonomy, diversity, and creativity in your learning choices. You can use a PLE to customize your learning experience, explore your interests, and discover new possibilities.

Here's an example of how a Personal Learning Environment (PLE) can look like for a university student: 1. The student uses digital tools like Evernote for taking and organizing notes, Google Scholar for research, and a cloud storage service for storing and accessing documents. 2. Leverage online forums and social media groups related to her degree where she discusses topics with peers and experts. 3. Access their university's LMS for course materials, assignments, and communicating with instructors. 4. Maintain a digital journal where the student reflects on their learning experiences, challenges, and progress. 5. Attend workshops, conferences, and participating in fieldwork, integrating these experiences into their PLE.

When doubts arise, especially at the onset of a course, remember this critical point: what truly distinguishes experts from novices isn't merely intelligence or sheer work ethic but rather the complexity and refinement of the mental frameworks they employ within their field. Experts organize their long-term memory by accumulating a multitude of frameworks, readily accessible when faced with challenges. They rely on expansive, meticulously structured knowledge bases to navigate and solve encountered problems. Therefore, be optimistic and don't be intimidated by new concepts introduced in your course. With progress in your learning, you will develop your own mental schemas and these concepts will gradually become more familiar and manageable.
