... education is at the heart of both
personal and community
development; its mission is to enable
each of us, without exception, to
develop all our talents to the full and
to realize our creative potential,
including responsibility for our own
lives and achievement of personal
aims.
Jacques Delors (Delors, 1996, p 17)

LEARNING TO KNOW

Concentration, Memory skills
and Ability to Think.

5.
Learning to Know
Learning to Know involves the
development of Knowledge and
Skills that are needed to function in
the world. These skills include
Literacy, Numeracy and Critical
Thinking.

6.
People have to learn to understand the world
around them by combining a sufficiently broad
general knowledge with the opportunity to work
in depth on a small number of subjects. This also
means learning to learn (autonomous learning),
so as to benefit from the opportunities education
provides throughout life.
As a result of learning, the
person is transformed — they are
more Enlightened, more
Empowered, more Enriched.

7.
Learning to Know helps individuals to:
 Develop values and skills for respecting and
searching for knowledge and wisdom
 Learn to learn
 Acquire a taste for learning throughout life
 Develop critical thinking
 Acquire tools for understanding the world
 Create a curious mind/learner
 Understand sustainability concepts and
issues

some Indicators and Measures of the ―Learning to

In summary;
Learning to Know helps with the
knowledge and information
needed to work in a globalized,
information society and
knowledge economy, and the
tools for learning how to learn
and to independently acquire
knowledge.

It is clear that Technical and Vocational
Education and Training (TVET) needs to
encompass all four pillars of learning in
order to prepare the individual with the
knowledge, skills, qualities, values, attitudes
and abilities to communicate effectively and
work together productively with others.
―Learning to DO‖ is anchored within the
context of lifelong learning and TVET, in
preparation for life and the world of work.

systemic implications for
individuals and for

LEARNING TO LIVE TOGETHER

19.
Learning to Live together
Learning to live
together in peace
and harmony is a
dynamic, holistic
and lifelong
process through
which (the shared
values) are
internalized and
practised.
The process
begins with the
development of
inner peace in the
minds and hearts
of individuals
engaged in the
search for truth,
knowledge and
understanding.

20.
Learning to Live Together
Learning to Live Together involves
the development of social skills and
(1)
values such as respect and
(2)
concern for others, social and
(3)
inter-personal skills and an
appreciation of the diversity of the
World.

21.
Education should adopt two complementary
approaches. From early childhood:
 It should focus on the discovery of other people in
the first stage of education.
 In the second stage of education and in lifelong
education, it should encourage involvement in
common projects.
Discovery of
other people
Encourage
involvement

projects

22.
Discovery of other people
 Teach pupils and students about human diversity
 Instill in them an awareness of the similarities and
interdependence of all people Some subjects lend themselves to this human geography in basic education, foreign languages and literature later on
 Children should be taught to understand other people's
reactions by looking at things from their point of view
 Teaching the history of religions or customs can provide a
useful reference tool for moulding future behaviour
 Recognition of the rights of other people should not be
jeopardized by the way children and young people are
taught
One of the essential tools for education in
the twenty-first century will be a suitable
forum for dialogue and discussion.

23.
Encourage involvement in common projects
 Introduce young people to collaborative
projects from an early age ,
 The renovation of slum areas,
 Help for disadvantaged people,
 Humanitarian action,
 Senior citizen help schemes
 Involvement of teachers and pupils in common
projects can help to teach a method for
resolving conflicts and provide a valuable
source of reference for pupils in later life.

■ Learning to live appropriately with others is
important in our everyday lives – from life in the
school, family and community to the special
problems of adolescent relationships.
■ Learning to live together in the wider society
requires awareness of and respect for human
rights and the responsibilities of local, national
and global citizenship.
■ Learning to live together as responsible citizens
can help reduce tensions due to ethnic or other
divisions and social disparities which contribute to
the instability or civil conflict seen in many nations
today.

27.
LEARNING TO BE

28.
Learning to Be
The all-round development of the whole
person, to fulfill his/her highest potential, and
be able to think, decide and act independently—
the source of creativity, innovation and
entrepreneurship.
The aim of development is the complete
fulfillment of man, in all the richness of his
personality, the complexity of his forms of
expression and his various commitments - as
individual, member of a family and of a
community, citizen and producer, inventor of
techniques and creative dreamer‗.

29.
Learning to Be
Learning to Be involves activities
that foster personal development
(body, mind and spirit) and
contribute to creativity, personal
discovery and an appreciation of
the inherent value provided by
these pursuits.

30.
All people should receive in their childhood
and youth an education that equips them to
develop their own independent, critical way
of thinking and judgment so that they can
make up their own minds on the best
courses of action in the different
circumstances in their lives.
In that connection, education must not
disregard any aspect of a person‘s potential:
memory, reasoning, aesthetic sense, physical
capacities and communication skills.

31.

The 21st century will need a varied range of talents and
personalities even more than exceptionally gifted
individuals, who are equally essential in any society.
Both children and young persons should be offered every
opportunity for aesthetic, artistic, scientific, cultural and
social discovery and experimentation, which will complete
the attractive presentation of the achievements of previous
generations or their contemporaries in these fields.
At school, art and poetry should take a much more
important place than they are given in many countries by
an education that has become more utilitarian than
cultural. Concern with developing the imagination and
creativity should also restore the value of oral culture and
knowledge drawn from children's or adults' experiences
