LEARNING
 
What is learning?  Do you learn?  How do you learn?  How did you learn to walk/talk?  These are important questions to think about and research.   There is a great deal of research on this subject and well worth looking at.  Why?  Because if there are topics we would really like to learn, there are some strategies we can use to facilitate that learning.  First we need to examine how each of us learn.  
One exciting area of learning that we want you to explore is Multiple Intelligences.
