THINKING = LEARNING + REPRESENTATION + METAINTERPRETATION
LEARNING = ORGANIZATION + STORAGE STRUCTURES + REPRESENTATION + INTERPRETATION
LANGUAGES = TOOLS OF THINKING AND LEARNING
KNOWLEDGE = LANGUAGES + THINKING + REPRESENTATION

In Romanian
GÂNDIRE = ÎNVĂȚARE + REPREZENTARE + METAINTERPRETARE
ÎNVĂȚARE = ORGANIZARE + STRUCTURI DE STOCARE + REPREZENTARE + INTERPRETARE
LIMBAJE = INSTRUMENTE ALE GÂNDIRII ȘI ÎNVĂȚĂRII
CUNOAȘTERE =  LIMBAJE + GÂNDIRE + REPREZENTARE

*** concepts in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence / concepte din Informatică și Inteligență artificială
ALGORITHM = LOGIC + CONTROL (R. Kowalski 1979)
ALGORITHM = KNOWLEDGE + REASONING (R. Kowalski 2010)
THINKING = KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION + PROBLEM SOLVING (R. Kowalski 2010)

PROGRAM = ALGORITHM + DATA STRUCTURES (N. Wirth 1975)
EXPERT SYSTEM = KNOWLEDGE + METAINTERPRETATION (L. Sterling 1984)

MODELING = KNOWLEDGE + REPRESENTATION (© M. Vlada2009)
LANGUAGES = PROCESSING + INTERPRETATION (© M. Vlada 2009)

- Douglas Thomas, John Seely Brown (2011), A New Culture of Learning: Cultivating the Imagination for a World of Constant Chang.
"By exploring play, innovation, and the cultivation of the imagination as cornerstones of learning, the authors create a vision of learning for the future that is achievable, scalable and one that grows along with the technology that fosters it and the people who engage with it. The result is a new form of culture in which knowledge is seen as fluid and evolving, the personal is both enhanced and refined in relation to the collective, and the ability to manage, negotiate and participate in the world is governed by the play of the imagination. Typically, when we think of culture, we think of an existing, stable entity that changes and evolves over long periods of time. In A New Culture of Learning, Thomas and Brown explore a second sense of culture, one that responds to its surroundings organically. It not only adapts, it integrates change into its process as one of its environmental variables. Replete with stories, this is a book that looks at the challenges that our education and learning environments face in a fresh way." Source (REVIEWS): www.newcultureoflearning.com

The 21st century is a world in constant change. "A new culture of learning" is based on several basic assumptions about the world and how learning occurs:

1. The world is changing faster than ever and our skill sets have a shorter life
2. Understanding play is critical to understanding learning
3. The world is getting more connected that ever before – can that be a resource?
4. In this connected world, mentorship takes on new importance and meaning
5. Challenges we face are multi-faceted requiring systems thinking & socio-technical sensibilities
6. Skills are important but so are mind sets and dispositions
7. Innovation is more important than ever – but turns on our ability to cultivate imagination
8. A new culture of learning needs to leverage social & technical infrastructures in new ways
9. Play is the basis for cultivating imagination and innovation

About Romania, e-Learning: http://www.virtualcampuses.eu/index.php/Romania

Gândirea și învățarea sunt procese între mediul real și mediul virtual /
Thinking and learning are processes between real and virtual

Cand suntem elevi, studenti, si dupa aceea multa vreme, nu ne preocupam sa intelegem ce inseamna de fapt invatarea, ce este gandirea, ce este o stiinta, ce este un limbaj, ce este o problema, prin urmare ce sunt conceptele fundamentale pe care le utilizam in aplicarea cunostintele si competentelor acumulate in timp. Probabil ca nici nu am putea intelege aceste concepte, decat dupa diverse experiente acumulate in activitatea profesionala, stiintifica, in viata obisnuita. In scoala, la facultate si apoi la locul de munca unde ne exercitam profesia, suntem preocupati sa indeplinim atributiile curente privind rezolvarea problemelor, in functie de cunostintele, competentele si experientele acumulate pana la momentul respectiv.

Paradigme ale învăţării - Triada OM – SOCIETATE - NATURĂ

• Nevoia de învăţare şi procesul învăţării;
• Nevoia de adaptare la schimbări, reforme, evenimente și decizii la nivel personal, în societate, local sau mondial;
• Nevoia de apărare faţă de semeni, faţă de societate şi faţă de natură.

OMUL pentru a trăi în bunăstare şi fericire, şi pentru a se adapta la condiţiile şi regulile din societate, are nevoie să ÎNVEŢE şi să-şi DEZVOLTE PERSONALITATEA pe tot parcursul vieţii. Prin procesul de învăţare are acces la tezaurul cunoaşterii mondiale şi astfel îşi poate îmbunătăţi viaţa şi modul de adaptare la toate schimbările, reformele şi evenimentele vieţii sale şi ale societăţii. Viaţa şi experienţa profesională ale omului îl învaţă că are nevoie şi de apărare, aceasta se referă la influenţele negative din partea omului, din partea societăţii şi din partea naturii, uneori chiar din partea propriilor acţiuni şi decizii.
