Study Skills

There has been an immense expectation for young learners to develop a variety of skills in order

to become independent learners, capable of directing their own study and able to critically evaluate

information from many sources. The learners skills in critical thinking must be developed as well as their

skills in personal organization; information retrieval and interpretation have to be nurtured. Therefore,

the development of effective Study Skills has become an increasingly important feature of the education

landscape as the trend towards self-directed, independent learning has gathered pace. Within this

context, where young learners have a world of information at their fingertips, the teachers role is

increasingly seen as that of a guide on the side rather than a sage on the stage.
