By definition, learning something new means that we: don’t understand, haven’t been exposed to, are not familiar with, or have no prior knowledge with which to make a connection between the familiar and unfamiliar (i.e. to build on previous knowledge).
Many of us were expected to have straight “A’s” from school in order to prove our knowledge and mastery. However, as adults, we do not need “A’s” in order to gain the practical knowledge which will allows us to function better in our jobs and in our lives.

ALL FORMS OF EDUCATION ARE ABOUT OBTAINING INFORMATION AND WISDOM TO BE USED IN THE HERE AND NOW. JUST AS IMPORTANT IS HOW EDUCATION TEACHES US HOW TO BECOME EVEN BETTER, AND MORE CURIOUS, INDEPENDENT LEARNERS.
