The LPLS Learning 2.0 program is based on the original Learning 2.0 program developed by Helene Blowers at PLCMC. Before starting this exercise, please take a minute (and a half) to listen to a podcast by Helene, then return to this blog entry. (The podcast is hosted at ODEO and does not require additional software to listen. Click on the > button to start the podcast.)
Among libraries, lifelong learning is one of those core values we shelve our books by. So it makes sense that before we embark on this new online learning and discovery journey that we should take a few minutes to review a few habits that can assist in creating lifelong learners.
These habits, which PLCMC calls the Seven and 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners, will provide you with a refresher on what it means to be a lifelong learner.
Discovery Exercise:
- Make sure you have headphones or speakers attached to your computer.
- Open up the 7 & 1/2 Habits online tutorial and view the online tutorial (15 minutes long).
- As you watch and listen, think about which habit among the 7 & 1/2 that is easiest for you and which is hardest. You will use your personal blog (which you will set up next week) to post your thoughts about lifelong learning.
Note: To view the attachments in the online tutorial, you will need to disable any pop-up blockers.
Have fun! If you haven't jumped on board yet, it's never too late to become a lifelong learner.
