Self-Sustaining Ecosystem for Learning and Communication

Abstract

The global society faces a number of challenges and risks. In order to adapt, it is important to have liquid learning and communication skills in order to be flexible and adaptive to new knowledge. Therefore, there is a growing demand for smart individuals demonstrating a deep desire for self-directed professional and life development. Scientific research into self-directed professional development strategies is of crucial importance. A person who aims at self-directed professional development is the one who knows and uses certain mechanisms, methods, and techniques to build and update work-related knowledge, qualities, and skills, thus planning and tracking his own career growth to become competitive in the global market and to keep the static and dynamic equilibrium of the global society in balance. In real life, students seldom recognize the importance of self-directed development as a learning skill for their personal independence, and for the static and dynamic equilibrium of the global society as a whole; thus, they do it spontaneously, inconsistently, and inefficiently.
