Comments on: Learn, unlearn and relearn http://bomega.com/2008/03/02/learn-unlearn-and-relearn/ Internet Entrepreneur, Public Speaker, Blogger Fri, 27 Apr 2012 19:21:03 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Rebecca http://bomega.com/2008/03/02/learn-unlearn-and-relearn/comment-page-1/#comment-10722 Rebecca Tue, 24 Mar 2009 02:24:50 +0000 http://bomega.com/2008/03/02/learn-unlearn-and-relearn/#comment-10722 Interesting to see a common link between a recent conference I just attended at Harvard on Learning Differences and your blog on "unlearning, learning, and learning." One of the speakers used this phrase and I did not know it came from Alvin Toffler until I viewed TED's video on Ken Robinson talking about Creativity and how schools should change its ways of teaching. The concept that we are evolving is probably a better representation of this phrase instead of saying that we may at times be too tired to invest time and energy to learn new things. It is true though that not everyone has the optimal capacity to go through change. However, if one based it on survival of the fittest; then it is those who are fittest to withstand the challenges of "change" , are those that will make the most of the 21st century. Cognitive flexibility is the key to all this.

Do you still remember Sinclair Spectrum and Basic and PC XT, and, ...but, I am getting tired, too, sometimes Hi Boris,

Because there are so many new technologies and ways of looking at things, evolving in something seems nearly impossible. Unlearning the way you used to do your X thing is as big as learning to deal with the new technology or information, hence it takes a great amount of effort and energy.
