While reading some very interesting notes on Learnlets earlier this week something struck me… As a kid I was always told, there are two ways to learn something: The easy way and The hard way. The difference is that you will not forget if you learn it the hard way. Now, after some introspection I substituted “hard” for “fun”. It seems to work better…
Gever Tully founder of the Tinkering School runs his school on the same lines…
So why does this stop when we get old? Why don’t we try harder to make ‘higher’ learning fun? We don’t lose the desire to have fun as we get older… Just as many of us don’t lose the desire to learn.
