We now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change. And the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn.
As human beings we do change, grow, adapt, perhaps even learn and become wiser.
Learning is any change in a system that produces a more or less permanent change in its capacity for adapting to its environment.
Education must be based on the certainty that faults cannot be atoned for or blotted out, but must always have their consequences. At the same time, there is the other certainty that, through progressive evolution, by slow adaptation to the conditions of environment, they may be transformed.
Change is the end result of all true learning.
Learning lessons is a little like reaching maturity. You're not suddenly more happy, wealthy, or powerful, but you understand the world around you better, and you're at peace with yourself. Learning life's lessons is not about making your life perfect, but about seeing life as it was meant to be.
Earth teach me to forget myself as melted snow forgets its life. Earth teach me resignation as the leaves which die in the fall. Earth teach me courage as the tree which stands all alone. Earth teach me regeneration as the seed which rises in the spring.
Both EarthEcho and Seventh Generation understand that young people have the power to change the world - one home, one school and one community at a time.
This life is a process of learning.
Example is the school of mankind, and they will learn at no other.
