| Abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to describe a Personal Learning Plan method used in undergraduate early childhood education courses
as a specific case of learner-centered, inquiry-based instruction. A rationale for this approach to instruction, the instructional
context in which the specific method was developed and used, the method framework (i.e., preliminary and final plans, activities,
products, and reflections), and the evaluation process will be discussed. Finally, a discussion of the perceived benefits
and challenges of the method as it has been implemented will be presented. |
