What I Learned In Lifelong Learning

Everyone has their own preferred way of learning new things. Knowing how you learn can

The best way to learn new things is to make mistakes and learn from your mistakes and the best way to understand others is to put your legs in their shoes. Cliff

For example, in order for me to learn how to do injections, or draw blood I’d have to practice in a clinic. Doing these tasks correctly means asking others for help when needed, setting a goal, and planning out the strategy to learning it, monitoring my progress, and getting feedback from others about my performance. The best way deliberate practice can help me fully learn these new skills is by practicing them repetitively. You know the saying “practice makes perfect?” You can’t learn how to do billing, or how to administer injections overnight. It takes time, and effort to learn something new. Paying attention to what you’re doing is very important as well.

From experience I know that to learn something new, a person has to perform that specific task or action and keep practicing to become better at it. For example, all the part- time jobs I have had, I usually had one or two days of training, before actually starting the job, then the following day I had to do my job by myself. I felt uneasy and stupid the first couple of days, but I observed and mirrored my co-workers as well as asked questions. After a week of performing my job function on my own, I felt better because I was executing my tasks quickly and efficiently.

I want to gain knowledge from academics, life, and personal assessment. Therefore, I must understand the materials to be studied, different circumstances in life, and can learn from my achievements and mistakes. Understanding is only one part of the process, remembering and utilizing my strengths will help to reinforce my learning goals.

I took Adult Living this year because I thought it would be very beneficial in the real world and when I’m living on my own in a few years. We learned about families, values, purchasing cars, finances and a lot more. The two that I have found most important to learn was apartment and apartment searching and volunteering.

How do I respond to those placed in authority over me that try to teach me? Do I respond as if I have all the answers or do I embrace their instructions and learn all that I can?

Lastly, most classrooms in higher education are a "one-size-fits-all approach to learning. There is no tailoring to individual learning styles or interests. The education system does not go into further detail, and expect students to get from point A to point B"(Ruytenbeek, 2013). Some professors do not elaborate further in their lessons, and just follow a plan that doesn't entirely cover the whole lesson. The learning in higher education is rigid and unbending. Many students find professors lessons unclear and confusing because they follow a set plan. This plan is linear and professors refuse to review over for

Lifelong learning is simply the process of developing an individual's skills and abilities throughout the duration of their career. In a society predicated on capitalism, competition can arise from anywhere. Corporations must be prepared to defend their competitive advantages relative to their peers within the industry. Lifelong learning is one method in which to do so. By properly training individuals within the corporation, the organization as a whole becomes better. Personnel can become more efficient with their thought process and decision making skills. In addition through the use of cross functional training, personnel can gain skills in completing different fields such as human resources and public relations. This learning through cross functional teams is beneficial for two primary reasons. First, through learning other aspects of the corporation, personnel have a better idea of how their respective contributions add to the organization as a whole. As such, these individuals, through lifelong learning, can make better decisions based primarily on their implications for the entire organization. Secondly, solutions to company problems are garnered through a litany of different sources. Through knowledge gained through lifelong learning, personnel can also help innovate within the organization in a more efficient manner. These innovations will ultimately solve issues within the company that are a result

After years of friendship I felt bold enough to start making suggestions, subtle hints that I thought he needed professional help. I loved him and wanted nothing more than for him to be happy.

Education and Lifelong Learning. The ALA’s fifth value centers on the library’s need to provide opportunities to their communities for life-long learning. Librarians are encouraged to promote “the creation, maintenance, and enhancement of a learning society” (Core Values of Librarianship, 2004) through their work. The concepts behind the OA Publishing movement work in tandem with the efforts of librarians to establish life-long learning lifelines to patrons by providing free access to what was once expensive and/or inaccessible information. Access to academic data should not be limited to those with the good fortune to have resources available to them at will. All people with the desire and drive to access and utilize academic research should be afforded the opportunity to do so regardless of their financial situation or institutional affiliation. OA journals allow for self-directed learning to take place outside the traditional constraint of an academic environment, thus it actively promotes continued education and learning opportunities for non-traditional information communities.
