"The test of successful education is not the amount of knowledge that pupils take away from school, but their appetite to know and their capacity to learn. (Sir Richard Livingstone, 1941)
All skills will become obsolete except one, the skill of being able to make the right response to situations that are outside the scope of what you were taught in school. We need to produce people who know how to act when they are faced with situations for which they were not specifically prepared. (Seymour Papert, 1998)
One of the core functions of 21st century education is learning to learn in preparation for a lifetime of change. (David Miliband, 2003)
Pedagogy should at its best be about what teachers do that not only helps students to learn but actively strengthens their capacity to learn. (David Hargreaves, Learning for Life, 2004)
Effective teaching ... should aim to help individuals and groups to develop the intellectual, personal and social resources that will enable them to ... flourish ... in a diverse and changing world. (ESRC TLRP Evidence-informed principles for teaching and learning: No 1, March 2006)21"
