Introduction
"Lifelong learning throws the axiom 'You can't teach an old dog new tricks' out the door.... Lifelong education is a form of pedagogy often accomplished through distance learning or e-learning, continuing education, homeschooling or correspondence courses. " [1]
To this end, I felt it was worthwhile for participants in this e-learning course to take a moment to review a few good habits that can assist in your lifelong learning.
Discovery Exercise
- Make sure that sound is enabled on your computer
- Complete the Seven and 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners tutorial
- As you watch and listen, write down which habit among the 7 &1/2 that is easiest for you and which is hardest. You will use your personal blog (which you will set up next) to post your thoughts about lifelong learning.
Next Activity: Create your own blog so you can begin tracking your journey.
