This is my reflective learning journal, in which I reflect on what learning means to me, my thoughts, feelings and experiences around learning, and how I might help others learn.
For now, I’d like to begin with a quote about learning, from one of my favorite artists.
“I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.” Pablo Picasso
There are many ways to learn, but one method that has always worked well for me is “jumping right in and trying stuff and making a lot of mistakes and figuring it out as I go along“. I have completed more than eight years of post-secondary education, and one thing I have learned about learning is that it is often messy. The human mind and heart is not a machine, and learning is not a scientific process. Often, the deepest and most profound learning that happens is not what you expected, or even what the teacher intended.
