What Did I Learn About Learning?

                                                                                                                


WHAT DID I LEARN ABOUT LEARNING?

1) I am responsible for my own learning.  My learning is not dependent on the teacher. They can make me memorize, but only I control whether I truly learn.

2) Everyone learns differently.  We all must learn to use our strengths and to compensate for our weaknesses. Our unique learning issues are not "STOP" signs, but "CURVE IN THE ROAD" signs.  We can still reach our dreams in our own way.

3) Curiosity is the key to education. If you don't allow yourself to be interested and enthusiastic your education will suffer.

4) Failure is not a bad thing.  The things I learn from my mistakes stick with me longest. First Attempt ILearning! Someday everyone will have a failure moment - your strength is in how you handle it.

5) There is no endpoint to learning – I will never “finish” learning, and there are some tasks which are not meant to be completed. We still learn from them.

6) Collaboration means everyone learns more.

7) There are things we – must do and things we want to do – and we can balance and accomplish both. Pushing and challenging us makes us stronger.

8) A true sense of accomplishment comes from mastering difficult things - doing the easy stuff does not give the same satisfaction and growth.
