How to Create a Learning Environment
Learning is by far the only entity that remains constant in our rapidly changing world. Time is compressed, meaning that we have very little time to keep abreast with change. However one has to learn to adapt and be a part of change. The only way this can be achieved is to learn how to survive or "how to learn" with the ever increasing demands of life. A learning environment involves people who are willing to improve themselves through continuous education and training.
Steps

Invest in education and training. These investments can include effort, finance, coaching, tutoring and guiding people to improve academically or creatively. Encourage creativity by engaging in activities like, planning a garden, making an item, or even painting the house is a form of creative activity.

Allow friends, peers, family and other persons to be actively involved in day to day routines and procedures. Stimulate them to challenge these routines, change it or participate actively in these procedures.

Create opportunities for learning. Encourage active participation in family activities, household budgeting, home improvements, décor etc. Give children the opportunity to buy commodities, groceries or any item, in terms of a tight budget. Provide them with finances and mentor or guide them towards effective spending and thriftiness.

Find out what kinds of reading material, family, children and friends would be interested in. Make these types of preferable reading material easily available in your home, office, car etc. This will help stimulate their interest, hence also improving their learning abilities.

Empower all people to broaden their horizons with their own preferred learning styles. Be there to guide and motivate them. Always bear in mind that each person is unique. Their attitude and approach to learning may differ from yours.

Place an emphasis on learning. Let this be constant and ongoing. When things are becoming stagnant, notice and take action.

Incorporate learning with fun activities. Laborious and boring educational activities will only hinder the learning process. One can read a story to children in a favorite picnic spot. Introduce games like solving riddles. This can be very effective in educating and also provides a form of entertainment.

Provide the necessary resources. These may include time, money, trainers etc. The amount of resources will determine the quality and quantity of learning. This means that one has to support the learning process.

Be committed to the learning process. Always bear in mind that there will be no end to this attitude of continuous training. Create an awareness amongst others, specifying the importance of and the need for this change to take place.
