Thing #1 Habits of Lifelong Learners

There are 7 and a half habits of lifelong learners. They are begin with an open mind, accept responsibility for your own learning, view problems as challenges, have confidence in yourself as a competent, effective learner, create your own learning toolbox, use technology to your advantage, teach/mentor others and play. The easiest one for me is to use technology to my advantage. I always use technology such as interactive websites or games for extra help or practice on lessons I am learning to help me better understand the material. The hardest one for me is to view problems as challenges because when I am faced with a problem I tend to just ask for help instead of trying to figure it myself and use problem solving to see it, and I don't usually see it as a challenge I have to face to solve the problem. I think all of these 7 and a half habits for lifelong learners are very helpful in a learning environment and can help make learning more exciting and effective.
