Sb: 3 Wishes for LO List LO4652

Roy Winkler brings up an excellent issue. "How do we marry secondary and
post-secondary education with the needs of the workplace in such a way
that we condition individuals to be life-long learners by the time they
enter the workforce? This, more than many other strategies, should
produce people who are adept and accepting of participation in a learning
organization."

I enthuiastically second this suggestion. Can we define the essential
characteristics of a life-long learner? Can we develop an educational
program that would reliably produce one? How could we test it? This has
to be THE single most important issue facing us, not only in the
workplace, but also in the realm of good, informed citizenship.
