Kolb Experiential Learning Cycle L7: Make space for learners to take charge of their own learning

Learners are helped to move from passive receipt to self-direction and self-authorship: they take charge of their own learning and answer for it, understand how they learn best, and build the metacognitive skills to learn in regions of the learning space that are uncomfortable for them. Examples Kolb gives are assessment-and-feedback courses in which students build a personal learning plan for their career and life goals, and workshops that help learners interpret their learning style results or connect with teachers whose style differs from their own.
