Session 1430 Keys To Success: Self-Directed Learning Sharon Fellows, Richard Culver, William Beston SUNY-Binghamton/Broome Community CollegeIntroductionEvery study of engineering education and the skills required of practicing engineers lists life-long learning (LLL) as a necessary ingredient. And yet, there has been little developed in theway of formal preparation for engineering students so that they will become life-long learners.In fact, the loaded curriculum presented in most engineering programs works against developingthe learning skills and love of learning required to be a successful LLL
