description All universities in Malaysia are required to use a variety of teaching-learning methods, especially self-directed and long life learning, and the use of information and communication technology. Self-directed learning methods encourage students to recognise their needs and manage their learning, as well as deepen their understanding using complimentary activities. Therefore, student self-knowledge is essential. One aim of 'open learner models' is to encourage reflection, independent learning and formative assessment/progress monitoring, which fits well with the self-directed learning approach. An open learner model is part of a computer-based interactive learning environment where the individual learner can view information about their knowledge, difficulties and misconceptions. Using the simple independent open learner model, this paper present students' interest in viewing their learner model and considers the potential for open learner models as an approach to encourage self-directed and long life learning amongst students in institutes of higher learning in Malaysia.
