Meaning and context are core to learning. In order to shape the future, it is important to respect the past and attend to the present. Preparation for success in the workforce is important. Knowledge is advanced through systematic research and the organization, management, use/application of information. Discovery, application, integration, teaching, collaboration, assessment and evaluation are fundamental to learner-centered education. Information access is critical to societal well-being. Societal well-being is enhanced by the nurturing of the whole individual and communities.
