Self Directed Learning - What I Have Learned

1. That self learners don't know everything they intend to learn prior to starting.
 - they may have a specific result/s they are aiming for
 - and an initial impulse to learn in a certain way.
 - that they have methods and resources they have built up over a life time

2. That traumatic brain injury
 - has a tendency of eliminating the third aspect entirely
 - makes the re-acquisition of the third the aim
 - and simplifies the urge to do something in an certain way into just an urge to do something.

3. When the truths of a persons life have been brought into question due to massive changes in support networks, and income source, the styles of learning, what they originally chose to learn, how, and why all of a sudden become irrelevant, and the those must be rebuilt before any learning can take place... otherwise it becomes a random collection of facts that are used for the moment and then forgotten much like cramming for a test.
