The word is "learn"
A True Vocabulary Is Good For You
A nice short definition for "learn'' is to gain knowledge, comprehension, or mastery, through study and experience. We can learn much about a man by following his tracks. We can learn much about ourselves by retracing our own tracks.
Many of us have learned that we have too often learned incorrectly; too often learned to believed was so, was not so. We may have learned from lies. We may have learned from distorted or faulty observations. We have learned that unlearning was often more difficult than earning. Our analysis of our own past learning may be very important. We have learned that important parts o f our past learning needs to be reinterpreted in the light of new information. We finally learned that such reinterpretation was an ongoing activity.
Memorizing can be an important part of learning, but understanding is the better part.
One ma become erudite through observation and reflection. That's learning. Reflection is like looking it over again and rethinkinking it. That is learning. Learning can be the acquisition of wisdom when we continue to analyze our observations. To be called learned (two syllables) has been considered an nice compliment, to be called understanding can be a better one.
Taking a good look at that which you can really do and that which you really know can be a useful learning experience. Paying attention to your observations can too.

A Few Quotes
A lot depends upon how one interprets them
"The philosophy in the classroom today is the philosophy of the government " by Norman Williams
I am not sure it is true. I believe that parents and citizens are responsible for their schools and that which is taught in the classroom. When they abdicate that responsibility children, youth, and our culture suffers.
"The very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world."
by George Orwell
I think that our concepts of honesty, experience, and good evidence could take up a lot of slake.
"The public will believe anything so long as it is not founded on truth."
By Edith Sitwell
This seems an exaggeration and not quite true. It seems that most of our public is educated in our public education systems. It seems that the public is made up of the ones responsible of our public education systems. What happens when they fail to honor their responsibility.
"Ours is the only country deliberately founded on a good idea"
That is republicanism and democracy and the idea that governance is in the hands of the citizens and is their responsibility. When they do not uphold that responsibility the fall into ignorance.
by John Gunther
What do you think? Who is responsible for you and yours? Who is responsible for your neighborhood? Your health? Your organization. Your county? Your co-operation? Your education?
