WHAT IS LEARNING?

“…[L]earning is about going beyond the knowledge given to you in a class or in a book…. Learning is personal. It happens one on one, it happens in small groups, it happens alone. Sure, a conference, a speaker, a lecture is motivating—but the real learning happens after. It's what you do with it, how you integrate it, how you talk to your family, friends, and classmates about it. That's what learning is.
