“Then said a teacher, ‘Speak to us of teaching.’” “And he said:‘No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.
The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple among his followers gives not of his wisdom but rather of his faith and lovingness.
If he is indeed wise, he does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind...'”
From "The Prophet", Kahlil Gibran
"The Art of Teaching is the art of assisting discovery"
Mark VanDoren
"Wisdom begins in wonder"
Socrates
This site is devoted to an idea which, though not new, is much neglected in education. It is the concept of learning how to learn, as distinct from merely learning the content. I hope that it will be a highly interactive site, with an active community of users who are interested in the practical applications of Learn to Learn. They might be teachers, parents, students, or anyone else interested in this crucial concept of educational and social reform.
Welcome to Learning How To Learn!
