ABSTRACT

Ultimately, learning is intrinsic to human living and if we could fully understand human learning we would understand human life itself. Moreover, the fact that learning is intrinsic to human life also means that unless humanity destroys itself or is destroyed by some natural disaster, then humans will continue to learn for as long as humanity exists, and significantly, humanity and human society are continually developing. In other words, as Simpson (1995) has argued, humanity is an unfinished project.
