Abstract : The purpose of this quasi-experimental research study was to ascertain that self-directed learning is an educational technique in which learners choose what and how they would learn under the teacher's guidance. The general idea is that learners take responsibility for their own learnings as ALS learners for the 2022–2023 school year, and this can be done either individually or in groups. At this stage in the research, the teacher is experiencing challenges in facilitating curriculum delivery and management and how she strategizes to overcome her difficulty and insights to mitigate such for better learning process among learners. The method used was quasi experimental research where assumptions were considered given fifty (50) participants of ALS Learners whose responses and identity were treated with utmost confidentiality. Findings revealed that a self-directed learning approach must be used on academic outcomes of ALS learners as a strategy that would further improve the academic performance of learners in order to make the teaching meaningful. If learners participate in the learning process by experiencing the unfolding of the lesson, they will appreciate the concept being developed, and therefore will learn.

Keywords : Collaboration; Communication and Learning is a Continuous Process.
