But what about the wolf? OK, kidding aside, I attended 9 different K-12 schools, one community college and 3 universities. It didn’t matter how the instructor decided to teach me, I learned the way I wanted to learn. In fact, I pretty much negotiated my way through school by telling the teachers I didn’t like their projects, but would be happy to do something different to prove I learned. I don’t know if this is something I was born to do, or something that I learned very early in my education, but I really haven’t changed. I do the same thing at work. You can lecture me as long as you want, but then I’m going to go off on my own to really learn. I wish I could identify the person, event or situation that made me take responsibility for my own learning. That’s what I would like to pass on to others.
