Lifelong learning refers to purposeful learning throughout life that aims to improve knowledge, skills, and competencies. It can be formal or informal and helps people adapt to changes, solve problems, and broaden their perspectives. The OECD emphasizes that lifelong learning takes a systemic approach, focuses on the learner, and includes both formal and informal types of learning throughout one's lifetime.

Stops In Our Lifes

2. Lifelong Learning is all
learning activity
undertaken throughout
life, whether formal or
informal
The concept is closely
linked to continuous
education and to
continuing education
and continuing
professional
development

3. Henry Ford once said ‘’Anyone who stops learning is
old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps
learning stays young . The most important thing in our
life is to keep our mind young.’’
Lifelong learning is Wikipedia’s defines. It could be
Formal and informal.

Informal learning is one of three forms of learning defined by the
OECD. The other two are formal and non-formal learning. Informal
learning occurs in a variety of places, such as at home, work, and
through daily interactions. For many learners this includes language
acquisition, cultural norms and manners.
In the context of corporate training and education, the term informal
learning is widely used to describe the many forms of learning that
takes place independently from books, self-study
programs, performance support materials and systems.

5. * OECD OECD
There are five key features of the lifelong learning approach, as conceived by
the OECD. First, it offers a systemic view of learning, since it examines the
demand for, and the supply of, learning opportunities, as part of a connected
system covering the whole lifecycle and comprising all forms of formal and
informal learning. Secondly, it emphasises the centrality of the learner and
the need for initiatives that cater for the diversity of learner needs.

To fully understand informal learning it is useful to define
the terms "formal" and "non-formal" education. Merriam
and others (2007), state: "The term non-formal has been
used most often to describe organized learning outside of
the formal education system. These offerings tend to be
short-term, voluntary, and have few if any prerequisites.
However they typically have a curriculum and often a
facilitator" (p. 30). Non-formal learning can also include
learning in the formal arena when concepts are adapted to
the unique needs of individual students (Burlin, 2009).

Lifelong learning is the development of
human potential through a continuously
supportive process which stimulates and
empowers individuals to acquire all the
knowledge, values, skills, and
understanding they will require throughout
their lifetimes and to apply them with
confidence, creativity and enjoyment in all
roles, circumstances, and environments

8. We live in the knowledge age, which means that
the ability to apply the right knowledge
effectively is an important skill and the
cornerstone of our success. If you ever doubt
the strength of knowledge and learning, just ask
someone who hasn't used a computer in ten
years to find an article on the Internet.

9. Learning makes us more interesting. Knowledge enables a
different perspective, fascinating conversation and a deeper
understanding. It makes us a better people, allows us to make
better, informed decisions, and assists us in becoming more
successful in our careers.

10. Today with less defined
changes in life roles there is
need for new strategies to
motivate lifelong learning.
Age 0-5 years
In this age group, a lot of learning takes
place, providing a foundation for future learning
habits. This is probably the age group where the
greatest amount of informal learning occurs, as
children imitate almost everything from parents, peers
and their environment. Learning in this stage affects
the development of all other learning abilities later in
life.

11. *
Learning in the 6 – 24 age group
primarily takes place in
educational institutions,
from primary and secondary
to tertiary levels. Family life,
social organizations and
religious institutions can also play a role
in non-formal and informal learning during this time. The objective of
learning in
this period is the holistic
development of learners in
four aspects, namely: physical,
intellectual, social
capacity, emotional
and mental development.

12. *
Individuals in the 25 – 60 age
group can learn informally
during their working lives
through the use of
instructional media, mostly
from their occupations, work-
places, colleagues, touring, m
ass media, information
technologies, environment and
nature. Adults learn from
experiences and problem
solving. They therefore need
continuous development of
intellect, capability and
integrity

13. The challenge of seeking
new knowledge and teaching
themselves may result in a
sense of pride of accomplishment
and help maintain self-esteem.

Let’s step back a
moment and look
at the context we
all find ourselves
in and the
challenges we
face.

of us recognizes
that today’s kids
, our students
, are different
from most of us .
They have a new
vernacular-a
