These are the Laws of Learning.

The 10 Laws of Learning are principles drawn from centuries of philosophy, decades of research, and the daily wisdom of classrooms and workplaces. They describe how human beings actually grow in knowledge and skill—messy, motivated, distracted, resilient, and always in relationship with others. Use these resources as guidelines for creating learning experiences that are meaningful, memorable, and transformative.
