Professor George Betts and Jolene Kercher devised The Autonomous Learner Model (ALM) to promote self-directed learning in gifted and talented students. The major goal of the model is to facilitate the growth of students as independent, self-directed learners, with the development of skills, concepts, and positive attitudes within the cognitive, emotional, and social domains.

This video below is posted in the clips page, but I wanted to post it here too because it really sums up the goals of the ALM. I absolutely love this video and how the teacher implemented ALM in his classroom. If you read/watch anything on this wiki, this should be it! media type="youtube" key="bQn9NPNoQHQ" height="315" width="420" align="center"
