Which statement best defines Lifelong Learning?

• A. Continuous education throughout an individual's life.
• B. Over-reliance on concrete experience hinders generalization.
• C. Direct, tangible experiences aiding learning processes.
• D. Decentralized approach empowering local school leadership.

Answer: (A)

Lifelong learning means ongoing education across a person’s life, not limited to school years. It captures the idea that people continually update their knowledge and skills to adapt to new roles, technologies, and life circumstances. The statement describing continuous education throughout an individual’s life best fits this concept because it emphasizes learning as a persistent, life-spanning activity. The other options touch on specific learning approaches or settings—experiential aspects and personal experiences as learning aids, or governance in education—without defining the lifelong, ongoing nature of learning.
