LEARNING ESSENTIALS

Learning always has four elements

• Information
• Feelings or engagement or caring
• Action of application of knowledge or skills
• Metacognition- fitting into a person’s story of their own life or how they want their life to be.

TRANSFORMATIVE LEARNING

• The most significant learning is personal, meaningful and actionable.
• Fear inhibits learning – Fear of failure, fear of error or appearing foolish, fear of people who are different or of the differences, themselves.
• Real learning is transformative – it changes the way learners see the world and themselves.
• Transformative learning helps learners become the people they want to be, to enhance their skills and understanding of life.
