8. LoTi @ DPISD What we know about learners We know that learning happens best when a learning experience pushes the learner a bit beyond her independence level (Howard 1994, Vygotsky 1966). We know that motivation to learn increases when we feel a kinship with, interest in, or passion for what we are attempting to learn (Piaget, 1978).

42. LoTi @ DPISD A Connection. Push me! See how far I go!
Work me till I drop. Then pick me up.
Open a door and make me run to it before it closes.
Teach me so that I might learn, then let me enter the tunnel of experience alone.
And when, near the end, I turn to see you beginning anothers journey,
I shall smile.
