Promoting life-long learning skills in our teachers
2 December 2015
CERAS 527
Current studies in education raise the need for preparing students for the 21st century demands. Students are expected to become "life-long learners" who have the necessary skills for success throughout their careers and lives. However, if teachers are incapable of implementing these skills, it will be difficult for them to instill these skills among their students. Therefore, the question of how to promote life-long learning skills among teachers is of critical importance.
