Education is the process of “becoming a person”, which continues lifelong and is not confined to people’s experiences in schools and other educational institutions but includes all their experience of the society in which they live. It involves conscious pursuit of the goal of becoming the kind of person one wants to be – of “identity goals”, as Hodgkin calls them – with the kind of knowledge and skills one wishes to have. Curiosity and self-confidence, important components of the skill of learning how to learn, lead to a sense of continuous change in oneself.

One has a continuous potential to engage with new ideas, contexts and groups of people. A key source of the ideas underpinning this view is the work of the psychotherapist, Carl Rogers (1969). It is a view of education and of social experience as important means of becoming a self-confident and fully accepted member of one’s community or of several communities. A sense of belonging is an important factor in everyone’s emotional, personal and social development.

One “myth” which the review considers is the idea that there are critical periods for brain development, and therefore that there may be particular significance for learning development of the first three years of life or of forms of “hot housing” of young children. Neuroscience identifies certain types of learning that are developed strongly in sensitive periods when the brain is particularly ready to respond to stimuli in the environment. The result of responding to environmental stimuli is enormous growth of axons (the “tails” of brain neurons that send electrical impulses to other neurons), dendrites (neurons’ receptors of impulses from other neurons), and synapses (the connections between axons and dendrites).

It appears that the types of learning most susceptible to these “sensitive” periods are those which occur naturally as part of our evolutionary development. They are those in which the brain expects visual, auditory and tactile stimuli that are constantly present in the environment and adapts itself to them. In early childhood there are sensitive periods relating to sensory and motor development and skills we are conditioned to develop by evolution, such as spoken language. Any normally stimulating human environment enables children to develop these abilities.
