Hi: I would have to say that probably 90% of the students that fail in my classes have an "inability to manage their learning." I don't know if this is due to the fact that they were never taught or just don't have the maturity necessary to accomplish the management. Even if these students are given specific instructions and aides to help them manage their learning, somehow they still fail to accomplish learning. This is a great question. I'm interested in your resource.

Geddes Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2005 3:17 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: A Question Greetings Learning Assistance Professionals, I am compiling information for a resource I am working on. Your response to the following question is greatly appreciated. What percentage of the academic problems of the students that you service are a result of an inability to manage their learning, as opposed to an inability to learn? (Keep in mind that by "manage their learning" I am referring to their ability to take responsibility for their learning, organize material in a productive manner, gauge and assess their learning ,and finally, detect and correct problems within their learning. I am not merely referring to time management.) Please estimate using the following percentages (feel free to expound on your answer as well). * 25% * 50% * 75% * 90% Lastly, does anyone know any resources that speak to these issues?
