""Systemic learning theory suggests that it is valuable to distinguish levels of learning.
It is clear that most learning that goes on within and outside learning institutions makes no difference at all to individuals’ or society’s overall paradigm. This is because it is first order learning or basic learning. Bateson distinguished three orders of learning and change, corresponding with increases in learning capacity.
Learning I - basic learning learning, thinking, knowing
Learning II - meta-learning learning about learning, thinking about thinking, knowing about knowing
Learning III: epistemic learning learning about learning about learning, thinking about thinking about thinking, knowing about knowing about knowing
Seeing as how no one may ever read this post, I'm not going to expound any more, but again, I have found studying epistemology to be exhilarating.
