520    This book aims to provide an overview of theoretical and 
       practical considerations in terms of self-directed 
       multimodal learning within the university context. 
       Multimodal learning is approached in terms of the levels 
       of multimodality and specifically blended learning and the
       mixing of modes of delivery (contact and distance 
       education). As such, this publication will provide a 
       unique snapshot of multimodal practices within higher 
       education through a self-directed learning epistemological
       lens. The book covers issues such as what self-directed 
       multimodal learning entails, mapping of specific 
       publications regarding blended learning, blended learning 
       in mathematics, geography, natural science and computer 
       literacy, comparative experiences in distance education as
       well as situated and culturally appropriate learning in 
       multimodal contexts.  This book provides a unique focus on
       multimodality in terms of learning and delivery within the
       context of self-directed learning. Therefore, the 
       publication would not only advance the scholarship of 
       blended and open distance learning in South Africa, but 
       also the contribute to enriching the discourse regarding 
       self-direction. From this book readers will get an 
       impression of the latest trends in literature in terms of 
       multimodal self-directed learning in South Africa as well 
       as unique empirical work being done in this regard. 
520    "Our knowledge of self-directed learning is sketchy at 
       best, with much of the research in the 20th Century 
       focusing on teacher-centred, behaviourist educational 
       methods, and socio-constructivism in educational 
       technology only really emerging in the mid-nineties. 
       Learner-centred education is a very recent phenomenon, 
       with much of the emphasis of learner-centred methodologies
       still focusing on the instructor having to put the learner
       in the centre - effectively still making it instructor-
       led. This book is thus providing ground-breaking work in 
       providing two systematic literature reviews that provide a
       theoretical framework for the study of self-directed 
       learning. It also provides six examples of empirical 
       research into self-directed multimodal learning that not 
       only provide good practical insights, but also serve as 
       examples of innovative methodologies that may be used in 
       further studies. The first comprises two case studies of 
       distance and face-to-face education in a multimodal 
       learning environment. On this follows a study of social 
       presence, supported by Google Docs and then a piece on the
       role of culture and the importance of training in 
       multiculturalism in learning design. Then comes a 
       discussion of journaling and critical reflection, while 
       chapter nine extends the reach to problem-based learning. 
       The final chapter considers self-directed learning and 
       digital literacy - a field that requires self-directed 
       learning as the technology changes all the time, requiring
       lifelong self-directed learning. In conclusion this book 
       provides a useful overview of the theories, technologies 
       and practices of facilitating multimodal self-directed 
       learning in a blended higher-education context."--
