the purpose of this study was to investigate whether using learning contracts in higher education enhances adults'readiness and competencies for self-directed learning. 163 students from six universities, enrolled in graduate courses in adult education where learning contracts were employed, were given pre and posttests to measure any significant gain in their competencies and readiness for self-directed learning. findings suggest that the use of learning contracts has little inpact on developing readiness for self-directedness, but does have some impact on developing competencies for self-directed learning.

mijn notes:
- independence in learning does not imply lack of structure but rather a new role for the teacher; that of assisting students to take greater responsibility for their own learning.
- een learning contract provides a framework for describing what a student will learn as a result of a specified learning activitity. the learning contract usually consists of four major components: 1 learning objectives, 2 learning resources and strategies, c evaluations of learning activities, 4 a time line for completion. Is dit te vergelijken met een studiecontract/actieplan/ pop?
- het tweede resultaat van het onderzoek is dat de studenten significant hoger scoren op 3 competenties: translate learning needs into learning objectives, identify human and material learning resources and select effective strategies for using learning resources.
- misschien interessant voor vervolg, is een leercontract of id wat voor beter leren zelfgestuurd te leren?
