A learner is like a moneybox


                               A learner is like a moneybox

 

A learner is like a moneybox, when the moneybox comes to your home, it’s empty. Just like a learner whose brain is empty before he or she starts to learn. As you put the money into the moneybox, the money is becoming more and more, just like the learner is learning, with the knowledge gaining day by day, the brain is adding more and more resources. If you want to use the money, you can just take it from the moneybox, just like if you want to use the knowledge, for example, you are teaching your child how to spell “apple”, it is from your basic memorize in your childhood. Or if you want to use a lot of money, you can just take it from the money box. Just like if someday you becoming a teacher, you will use your full knowledge to teach your student, no matter what the knowledge it is.

According to the A learning theory from the digital age ,  It says that Learning is a continual process, lasting for a lifetime. Learning and work related activities are no longer separate. In many situations, they are the same. Just like the moneybox, in your lifetime, you need to use the money, so that you need to refill your moneybox for a lifetime, it is a continual process.

says that we have since earliest recording history, had the desire to externalize our thoughts. Yes, in the earliest history, people do use a tool to exchange food and clothes. Nowadays, people find a convenient tool to exchange the stuff that people need. Just like we externalize our thoughts  into knowledge, as a learner should have.
