As requested in Week 1 of Learning 2.0, some thoughts on the 7.5 habits of lifelong learning
Habit 1 - Begin with the end in mind
The end you began with may not quite be the end you end with, but clear goals are important.
Habit 2 - Accept responsibility for your own learning
After all, no one else can learn for you.
Habit 3 - View problems as challenges
Some challenges are just a bit more..... well, challenging!
Habit 4 - Have confidence in yourself as a competent, effective learner
Somehow, I don't really see confidence as a learner has ever been a problem for me. Stubbornness, yes. Ability to go wandering off-topic, yes. Ability to provide FAR more information than was ever required, yes. Confidence...hmmmm
Habit 5 - Create your own learning toolbox
I like this idea! Skills, technology, time, all part of my toolbox.
Habit 6 - Use technology to your advantage
Technology is a WOOOOOONDERFUL thing WHEN IT IS WORKING PROPERLY.......
Habit 7 - Teach and mentor others
YES, a great way of getting something clear in your own mind is to explain it to someone else. During my High School years, this was generally Mum, usually when she was in the middle of cooking dinner...."Hey mum, listen to this....." My poor mother.
Habit 7.5 - PLAY
Like habit 4, I don't think this has ever been a problem for me...
Cheers
More thoughts soon
