Hal Wechsler on Being Auto Didactic
Ever hear of the term -- autodidactic? Yes, it is important to understand this principle because it goes to the heart of all learning for students, and continuous education for adults. Short and sweet, autodidactic is from Greek and means self-taught. It places the responsibility for learning on you and me, and not on the teacher and school. Our research indicates 90% of executives are unaware that lifelong-learning reduces your risk of Alzheimer #39;s up to 60%, and increases your longevity up to 10 years. The secret of life-long learning is being an autodidact, using libraries and the Internet to discover knowledge on your own. Use it or lose it.From:Hal WechslerViews:0 0ratingsTime:01:32More inEducation
