Kurubacak, Gulsun
Journal of Educational Technology, v3 n4 p9-18 Jan-Mar 2007
The main purpose of this paper is to discuss self-motivated learning through Project-Based Online Learning (PBOL). Besides, this paper aims to explore the dimensions and dynamics of self-motivated learning in a digital society. The strategies and principles of PBOL based on new communication technologies of evidence and truth through critical pedagogy is discussed to generate a theoretical framework that provides authentic examples and experiences for probing online learner engagements. The author hopes that this theoretical framework would help online communication workers to adapt diverse resources, multicultural experiences, and egalitarian opportunities. Furthermore, discussing the main dimensions and dynamics of self-motivated learning through Project-Based Online Learning (PBOL) can construct a very powerful paradigm shift to establish public interests encompassing the reflections of every aspect of egalitarian milieus with the enthusiasms, ideologies and persuasions as well as judgements.
