Education means to me life. It means to have knowledge and skills to actively participate and keep up with the changing in the world. Education is not just to read and write education is to communicate, understand others and change the world to better place. I'm a teacher so education to me is to help learners to achieve their goals and help them to have better life through education.
Nowadays education is available and free to everyone online. You don't have to be rich to get your education or to get information. Nowadays education means creativity empowering the students to change the world to better.
Today learning environment is not just a class room, a library it's technology world a learning environment can be virtual, online, in other words it doesn't have to be a place. It can be a system to engage learners in a climate for successful change.
Rima,
ReplyDeleteYour write that education means life. I've always thought education means finding one's place in the world. I think these are two ways of saying the same thing. Living is learning and making one's way in the world. It's exciting that there are now opportunities to further one's knowledge in virtual environments. Learning never stops, as you wrote in a previous post. I look forward to more connection and learning with you in our engaging, M4T collective learning environment...
