To become an active learner

When the regulation on extra teaching and learning officially comes into effect, parents also realize that the period of active learning begins to "reign".

Instead of just "waiting" for homework from teachers or the pressure of tests, students will now have to spend more time self-studying, self-discovering, self-building their own learning path, setting goals and making efforts to achieve them.

The book “Lifelong Learning” will guide readers to master important skills to become an active learner, able to create their own curriculum, orient their learning journey, retain information and apply that information to real-life situations.

The book begins by mentioning barriers in the learner's psychology such as "safe zone", "fear zone", "fixed mindset", "anxiety", "negative thinking",... thereby providing "tips" to help readers have "confident belief" and prepare a mindset ready for lifelong learning.

According to author Peter Hollins, “achieving something you once thought impossible is an amazing feeling; and learning how to do it requires stepping out of your comfort zone,” which can awaken the inner urge to pursue what matters most in life and ignite the inner drive to reach your passion.”

“Intrinsic motivation comes from within, the sense of passion for life and the world of the learner is very important and necessary,” the author asserts. People who have intrinsic motivation are lifelong learners, because they never tire of learning more about what they love. Therefore, nurturing and maintaining intrinsic motivation are lifelong skills that students, and especially university students, must develop in the 21st century, where they must collect and analyze huge amounts of information independently.

More than 260 pages are divided into 9 chapters. The book briefly summarizes the understanding of learning society, suggesting to readers about lifelong learning to create the future.

The book is like a guide or a consultant to help readers have a lifelong learning path that President Ho Chi Minh called "Learning never ends" with useful tools introduced such as "Using WOOP to set and achieve goals", "Self-study starts and ends with questions", "Reading - a magical habit, changes life", "Setting up a personal learning program and reflective learning", "Gamification - for learning, maintaining and motivating"...

According to Mr. Nguyen Anh Tuan, Director of the Institute for Lifelong Learning, founder of the Wisdom House Program and the Compassionate Bookshelf, “Lifelong Learning is not a blockbuster book in the sense of bringing new, shocking things that make people “dizzy”, but this is a book that we will wish we had the chance to read as soon as possible. I believe that it will help readers gain more confidence, courage and the necessary strategies and skills to start their lifelong learning journey - a journey whose ultimate goal and reward are simple but extremely sacred: Maximizing the unlimited potential of human beings and living a life without regrets!”.

The book "Lifelong Learning" was translated by Tong Lien Anh and Le Anh Thu, jointly published by Dan Tri and Times Publishing House.
