Following are different resources that are available for self learning and study:
Text books:
The text books are generally designed in accordance to the curriculum or syllabus
recommended by some education institute, board, college or university. In other words, the
text books are an important knowledge source for learners and students in different colleges,
schools and universities. Main purpose of designing text books is to facilitate critical learning
among students through reading skills and critical thinking skills about any topic (Ritter et al.,
2018). The text books also help students to achieve learning effectiveness and motivation.
Apart from these, the text book is a major source of self learning and study through
facilitation of generic skills, learning strategies, values and attitudes among students.
Reference Books and Other Printed Materials:
The tutors and module leaders in different colleges and universities encourages the students
to take into account wide range of learning resources including reference books for greater
level of knowledge and learning. In general, the reference books are not designed according
to syllabus or curriculum of a particular college or universities (Prytherch, 2016). But these
reference books contain different topics and content that is highly relevant to some of the
concepts that are parts of curriculum of the colleges and universities. Example of some
authentic resources of self learning that are recommended by colleges and universities
