LEARNING
PURPOSE OF THE CHAPTER
Learning is a symbol of human progress and the primary tool for our survival. We cope with our daily life by learning to walk, run, exercise, breathe deeply, control our emotions, use social media, drive a car, negotiate, adjust with our bosses, spouses, and children, use analytics, develop products and software, solve complex problems, and perform endless other things. The purpose of this chapter is to understand this powerful phenomenon that differentiates human beings from other living organisms.
Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn.
—Benjamin Franklin
