MOTIVATION OF LEARNING FOR LIFE LONG LEARNERS 1 Grundtvig Learning Partnership ‘How to be a Grandparent’

Knowledge can be acquired and skill-sets developed anywhere – learning is unavoidable and happens all the time. However, lifelong learning is about creating and maintaining a positive attitude to learning both for personal and professional development. Lifelong learners are motivated to learn and develop because they want to: it is a deliberate and voluntary act. Lifelong learning can enhance our understanding of the world around us, provide us with more and better opportunities and improve our quality of life. 2 Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner

Learning:- Boosts our confidence and self-esteem Makes us less risk averse and more adaptable to change when it happens Helps us achieve a more satisfying personal life Challenges our ideas and beliefs Can be fun Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner 3

There is a common view that continuous learning and having an active mind throughout life may delay or halt the progress of some forms of dementia, although there is actually very little scientific evidence to support these claims. However, keeping the brain active does have advantages since learning can prevent you from becoming bored and thus enable a more fulfilling life at any age.

There are, of course, many reasons why people want to learn:  You may want to increase your knowledge or skills around a particular hobby or pastime that you enjoy.  Perhaps you want to develop some entirely new skill that will in some way enhance your life – take a pottery or car mechanic course for example.  Perhaps you want to research a medical condition or your ancestry.  Perhaps you’re planning a trip and want to learn more about the history and culture of your destination  You may want to get a job or change your profession Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner 6

The Academic Colin Rose uses the MASTER concept to describe the six stages, he believes, are key to becoming an effective learner. Motivation Acquire Search Trigger Examine Reflect Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner 7 Taken from Accelerated Learning for the 21st Century: The Six-Step Plan to Unlock Your Master- Mind by Colin Rose

Motivation Lifelong learning requires self-motivation. You need to feel positive about learning and about your ability to learn. If you struggle to see the point of learning what you are learning, you are unlikely to do well. Acquire Effective learning requires that you acquire information through reading, listening, observing, practising, experimenting and experience. Information is all around you: the trick is to acquire relevant and meaningful information and develop this into knowledge and skills. Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner 8

Search Learning is successful when we can search for a personal meaning in the information we’re acquiring. We find it hard to remember facts without understanding them or being able to put them into context. Learning is about applying what you acquire and asking yourself questions such as: ‘How does this idea help in my life?’ or ‘What has this experience taught me about myself’ Trigger Human beings are notoriously bad at retaining information. You cannot and will not remember all that you read, hear and experience. You can help to trigger recollection in a variety of ways. For example, you can take notes, practice, discuss and experiment with new ideas and skills to help you learn and develop. Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner 9

Examine You should regularly examine your knowledge to help reinforce in your mind what you have learned. You should always try to keep an open- mind, question your understanding and be open to new information. Talking to others and seeing their point of view can be a powerful way of examining your own perception and understanding of a subject. Reflect Finally, you should reflect on your learning. Think about how and why you learned, including how you felt about a particular topic or situation, before and after you developed your knowledge. Learn from your mistakes as well as from your successes and always try to remain positive. Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner 10

Whatever your age, it's never too late to learn Motivation of Learning Pedagogical Model Suzanne McCrorie, SERC, NI Partner 11
