How Do you Nurture Life Long Learning in your context?

“In the most basic terms, a lifelong learner is someone who keeps acquiring new skills and capabilities well past their formal education years. It involves not only studying new topics but also developing an open-minded, positive attitude about the dynamic nature of the world. Personal development continues alongside professional development. A lifelong learner looks for opportunities to expand their knowledge and understanding.” (Keith Keating)

Using the PSP2020 and focusing on the standard: students as lifelong learners, and practices, and aligning your leadership practices. create a PD engagement for your staff to show them how to nurture life long learning.

From the Presentation: Rita Irani

•Create a 30 to 45-minute professional development activity to be used with staff that shows how they can nurture lifelong learning.

•Use learning design principles such as Merrill’s five principles of instruction to frame your work.

○  Problem/task-centred on real-world tasks or problems

o Integrated through reflection and discussion

o Activated by building on existing prior knowledge

o Demonstrated and applied in the context of real-world problems that are both informational and skill-based
