An Investigation of Styles and Strategies in Self-Directed Learning.

Stanton, Neville; Baber, Chris

Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia, v1 n2 p147-67 1992

This study investigated the cognitive style (field dependence/independence) and learning strategies of undergraduate students in learner-controlled computer-assisted instruction (CAI). Three learning strategies were identified, but it was concluded that cognitive styles and learning strategies may be the result of the computer software design, rather than true individual differences.
