TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.

Too right. The principles of adult learning are little different to those of
child learning. In fact, the desire to learn is the key to learning at any
age. It is the environment and expectations of the student which will
determine the reception of the learning experience. Fear or distrust of
learning will most likely produce no learning at all in the student.
Alternatively, a true desire for learning will not prevent the learning from
happening, even when the student is denied normal access to the learning
materials.
The true key to learning is the desire to learn. You need to want it before
you will truly get it. The so-called 'gift' of the teachers that are deemed
good or great, is that they instill the desire to learn in their students.
They make their students 'want' to learn; they don't just transfer the data,
they inspire the students to seek out the data for themselves.

Good philosopy, Steve! I like it! But since it appears that
we have some novice training developers in our midst, I'd
like to elaborate just a bit. (I guess it's just my day to
chime in!)
