Food for Thought Thoughts with Dark Cancer Season 2, Episode 2: What is Learning? A Guide to Lifelong Growth

We think of "learning" as something that happens in a classroom, but what is it really? In this first episode of a new series on Learning Skills, Dark Cancer challenges our traditional view and explores learning as a continuous, lifelong process that starts at birth and never ends.

This episode is a foundational guide to understanding how we acquire knowledge, deal with new situations, and develop relationships. The host makes a powerful case that learning is not something that is done to us, but something we can only do for ourselves.

This is your guide to the fundamentals of learning, including:

• A clear definition of learning as a process of experience.
• The 8 Key Principles of Learning, such as why learners must be treated with respect and why learning should be linked to positive past experiences.
• An introduction to the PACT Learning Cycle (Procure, Apply, Consider, Transform) as a model for how we build on our knowledge.
• A look at "learning capacity" and the importance of understanding your own unique learning style.
