Creating lifelong learners is ideally what we, as teachers, desire for all students. We understand the values and rewards that come from acquiring a thirst for knowledge. Wanting children to see learning as a valuable tool is easy, but knowing how to instill that love, now that is a different story. That story is presented here, in easy-to-understand text and ideas, to guide students through the concepts of lifelong learning.
Learning That Never Ends demystifies the concept of lifelong learning in a way that makes it easy and accessible for all. This work literally levels the playing field for any and all students to find success in life.
Every idea, every tool provided comes from fifteen years of research and experimentation across socioeconomic levels and subject areas from elementary to college, in hundreds of classrooms. With the ideas from this book, you can empower all students with the qualities of a lifelong learner.

Margie Pearse has over 25 years of teaching experience with certifications in elementary education, mathematics, and English as a second language; and is presently an instructional consultant, college professor, and lead author of Teaching Numeracy: 9 Critical Habits to Ignite Mathematical Thinking. Margie’s passion to empower all students with the qualities they need to succeed in life led her to the discovery of Learning That Never Ends. Mary Dunwoody has a professional career that spans more than 35 years in education, with extensive experience in classroom teaching as well as educational leadership. Currently Mary works as an independent educational consultant mentoring teachers and principals as they deepen their own understanding of the Qualities of a Lifelong Learner.
