Sometimes
we take a class in order to learn something, but learning is
something that happens inside of our own heads—and we learn things
on our own all the time. Autodidacts are people who not only know
they learn things on their own, but they embrace that. They would
rather learn on their own than take classes.
And
some autodidacts have declared this week as Self-University Week.
The
official website of this week has a large list of ideas of how
you can become a self-taught person (in other words, an autodidact).
Here are a few of the ideas:
Look
up a new word every morning and figure out three ways to use it
during the day.
Share
with others a list of the most inspiring books you have ever read.
- Visit a museum or gallery.
- Read the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution.
