Gilmour Sherman, and other researchers in the 1960s.(([[http://ei.cs.vt.edu/~mm/s96/cs4984Format/subsection3_2_1.html|Fox, Edward A.

| - | ===== What is the Keller plan? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Keller's idea was to make higher education teaching more adjusted to individual needs. His method was first introduced in 1962 in order to help establishing a Department of Psychology at the University of Brasilia and design a course for the students. After additional modifications, the key aspects of his method can be described as follows:(([[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1310979/|Keller, Fred S. ‘Good-bye, teacher...’ Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis 1, no. 1: 79-89. 1968.]])) | ||

| - | * **Go-at-your-own-pace**. A student can move through the course content at his own pace. | ||
| - | * **Unit-perfection requirement**. In order to advance to the next unit, a student needs to demonstrate mastery of the preceding unit. | ||
| - | * Emphasis on **written materials**. The emphasis is on learning from written materials. Lectures and demonstrations //will be provided only when you have demonstrated your readiness to appreciate them; no examination will be based upon them: and you need not attend them if you do not wish.// | ||
| - | * //The use of proctors, which permits repeated testing, immediate scoring, almost unavoidable tutoring, and a marked enhancement of the personal-social aspect of the educational process.// | ||
