January 2013 Learning: A Continuous Process Learning is more than memorizing‚ more than regurgitating facts and information. It is about the context‚ the experience‚ of interpreting these facts and transforming them into knowledge. This‚ as Jeff Cobb argues‚ is what constitutes learning and I concur.
