The Learner Profile

At OELC we “Live the Learner Profile”.
 
The Learner Profile helps us become more internationally minded, take action, and become better leaders and learners.  
 Communicator
I talk about my ideas and can express myself by writing and with pictures. I am learning more than one language.
 Knowledgeable
I can remember what I find out. I can use this information in my life.  I learn lots of things in lots of areas.
 Risk-Taker
I have the courage to try new things. I try to solve problems in many different ways. I stand up for what I think is right.
 Open-Minded
I know that people are different and may do different things. I know that not everyone will think like me and I try to understand others.
 Balanced
I am interested and involved in many different things. I understand that taking care of myself is important.
 Reflective
I know what I am good at and what I need to work harder at to learn. I think about my work and make changes when I can.
 Principled
I am fair and honest. I know the rules. I know fair is not always equal, since people have different needs.
 Inquirer
Curious! I am naturally curious and enjoy learning about new things. I love conducting research.
 Thinker
I am thoughtful. I think before I speak and act. I can solve problems and make good decisions on my own.
