Learn to love learning

Learning to  is an absolute necessity in the world in which we do now and will yet live, serve, and work.

It wasn't too long ago that there was no internet, no Google, no Wikipedia, no YouTube, and no TelePresence. The internet only began to be widely used by the general public in the mid­ 1990s.

Most of us have never known and cannot imagine a world without the internet and its associated technologies. The change from the “no internet world” to our “internet only world” has occurred within the last 20 or so years. Can we even begin to imagine how much things will continue to change during the next 20 years?

“Do we expect medicine to be practiced how it was 100 years ago? Do we expect education to be practiced how it was 100 years ago? Every other aspect of our society has evolved out of necessity with the constant focus of improvement. Education is, has always been, and will always continue to be, the most important part of society.”

 

Do you remember Sam-I-am? Sam-I-am green eggs and ham?!
Well if you do, you may recall, the lesson taught to one and all.

Try    and you will see.
You will like this easy tool! And you will like it in your school…
And you will like it in your house. And in the park. And with a mouse.
And in a car. And in a tree. Canvas is so good so good you'll see!
