Given the processual character of this learning relationship and process, but also due to my broader understanding of (autodidactical) education and life long learning, I would like to distinguish two sides of the same coin, called Bildung in German: first, there is knowledge, information, and thought on one side. This is the side where theory, background information, history,…WeiterlesenThe three dimensions of Bildung/education (1.2)
