Knowledge, Learning, Community

You remember that saying, "all politics is local?" Well, in the same way, all learning is personal. George Couros writes, "Here are three reasons that struck me upon reflection of this experience.

  1. Each individual has their own experiences and acquired knowledge. (Past)
  2. Each person creates their own connections to content based on the reason mentioned above. (Present)
  3. What interests each person biases what they are interested in learning moving forward. (Future)

Doesn't this to apply to all teaching and learning whether it is from the curriculum, delivered in a workshop, or watching it on a YouTube video?" Yes it does.
