Self Education: Five Essential Sites
Can people educate themselves? The jury's still out, I think, on this. But these five autodidact sites suggest that, maybe, they can. Jeff Cobb, Mission to Learn, March 10, 2010 11:22 a.m.. [Link] [Tags: none] [Previous][Next]Comments
Re: Self Education: Five Essential Sites
The jury's still out? I'm baffled. Perhaps I don't understand what you mean by "educate" themselves? I was studying through correspondence courses of my own choosing as long ago as 1976 and I'm pretty sure what's available to the self-motivated learner in 2010 is vastly superior to those pen and paper days. Not to mention the informal educational opportunities that are virtually 'on tap' these days. [Comment]
