Course One: Intro to Self-Directed Education
This purchase is for the self-guided course for The ASDE Compendium: Intro to Self-Directed Education
In this course, we lay the foundation—what Self-Directed Education really is, how it shows up in varied ways in direct practice, the most common topics and questions in SDE, and the intersectional framework that are key for a liberatory practice of SDE. Whether you are new to SDE, or want to ground yourself in key values, this is a great place to start.
