What
is Independent Study?
Independent
study refers to the range of instructional methods which are purposefully
provided to foster the development of individual student initiative,
self-reliance, and self-improvement. While independent study may
be initiated by student or teacher, the focus here will be on planned
independent study by students under the guidance or supervision
of a classroom teacher. In addition, independent study can include
learning in partnership with another individual or as part of a
small group.
