Whois & Analysis for whizz.com

Education is the process of facilitating learning, or the acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and habits.

Educational methods include storytelling, discussion, teaching, training, and directed research.

Education frequently takes place under the guidance of educators, but learners may also educate themselves.

Education can take place in formal or informal settings and any experience that has a formative effect on the way one thinks, feels, or acts may be considered educational.

The methodology of teaching is called pedagogy.

Learning is the act of acquiring new, or modifying and reinforcing existing, knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or preferences which may lead to a potential change in synthesizing information, depth of the knowledge, attitude or behavior relative to the type and range of experience.

The ability to learn is possessed by humans, animals, plants and some machines.

Progress over time tends to follow a learning curve.

Learning does not happen all at once, but it builds upon and is shaped by previous knowledge.

To that end, learning may be viewed as a process, rather than a collection of factual and procedural knowledge.

Learning produces changes in the organism and the changes produced are relatively permanent.

A parent is a caregiver of the offspring in their own species.

In humans, a parent is the caretaker of a child (where "child" refers to offspring, not necessarily age).

A biological parent is a person whose gamete resulted in a child, a male through the sperm, and a female through the ovum.

Parents are first-degree relatives and have 50% genetic meet.

A female can also become a parent through surrogacy.

Some parents may be adoptive parents, who nurture and raise an offspring, but are not actually biologically related to the child.

Orphans without adoptive parents can be raised by their grandparents or other family members.

Biologically, a child (plural: children) is a human being between the stages of birth and puberty.

The legal definition of child generally refers to a minor, otherwise known as a person younger than the age of majority.

Educational technology is defined by the Association for Educational Communications and Technology as "the study and ethical practice of facilitating learning and improving performance by creating, using, and managing appropriate technological processes and resources".
