ABSTRACT

The third dimension of the Autonomous Learner Model is Enrichment. The purpose of this dimension is to introduce the learner to the concept of "learner-based content" and to give them the opportunity to decide what they want to study Some learners will already know what they want to pursue, while others will need direction and guidance in learning possible methods of defining areas of learner-based content. In the Autonomous Learner Model, there are three levels of learner-based content. The first is Exploration, which provides learners opportunities to learn what is out there and what is available but unknown to them. The second level of learning is the Investigation, which provides learners with opportunities to learn more about a few topics a little deeper or more extensively. The In-Depth Study is the third and the highest level of learning.
