There are many ways of exemplifying Life Long Learning. This is one model we worked on during 2003. We wanted to develop a shared language for talking about learning. A key goal was to move our focus away from reinforcing behavior. Over a term we ran learning assemblies under the theme of 'The sky's the limit' Each week we would pick a quality. We had lots of fun, loud music and learning experiences to reinforce each quality. The term ended with each class creating a display on a particular quality. A local newspaper was invited along with our community to celebrate Life Long Learning.
On reflection the Life Long Learning qualities that seemed to have the most significant impact on students learning were the (I) related qualities e.g self improves, self motivates.
