It is my birthday today, which got me thinking about being a lifelong learner. So the math geek in me ran some numbers. I have spent around 24 years of my life (70%) as a STUDENT in a classroom. But that is only part of my learning experience. From the time I could walk I was following my father, learning to be like him. I love it, but I am still trying to learn how to golf. I am learning about new technology and learning how to be a blogger! I can't stress it enough, we are continually learning. If not, then as Albert suggests we are dying. In my short time as an instructional coach I am amazed by the things I have learned. My challenge is to pass as much learning as possible to others. To be a model of what a lifelong learner is both to my colleagues and to students.
