"In everyday use, learning has come to be synonymous with 'taking in information'.. Yet taking in information is only distantly related to real learning.. Real learning gets to the heart of what it means to be human. Through learning we re-create ourselves. Through learning we become able to do something we were never able to do. Through learning we repercieve the world and our relationship to it. Through learning we extend our capacity to create, to be part of the generative process of life."
-Peter Senge
