Learning to Know This implies thirst for knowledge and acquisition of such knowledge. More so, it is learning how to learn throughout one’s life. CPE 101 – The Teaching Profession How Is Literacy Defined? In 1958, UNESCO defined literate as one who can, with understanding, both read and write a short simple statement on his or her everyday life. However, in 1970, a functionally literate person is one who can engage in all the activities to use reading, writing and calculation for the community’s development. Further on, in 2000, literacy was defined as the ability to read and write with understanding a simple statement related to one’s daily life. It involves a continuum of reading and writing skills and often includes numeracy. However, the UNESCO international expert meeting in 2003, redefined literacy as the ability to identify, understand, interpret, create, communicate and compute using printed and written materials associated with varying contexts. Literacy involves a continuum of learning in enabling individuals to achieve their goals, to develop their knowledge and potential, and to participate fully in their community and wider society. CPE 101 – The Teaching Profession CPE 101 – The Teaching Profession Learning to Do To apply knowledge, one must have 21st century skills. Qualifications now are equated now to skills and not to knowledge alone. Learning by doing is a pragmatist’s view of life.

CPE 101 – The Teaching Profession Learning to Live Together This refers to the relationships among people. It is bringing in together a community to work harmoniously, to live in peace and prosperity and to show respect and concern for others. It also refers to interpersonal skills that will enable people to live side by side with others at home, in school, in the community and the whole world. All the pillars are interrelated with each other as basic principles. One pillar will not function if it stands alone. There is a need to connect in order to address the 21sr century demands for teaching and learning.
