So how do you gauge your level of learning agility? What does it take to be an agile learner? In a new CCL white paper, Learning About Learning Agility, Adam Mitchinson and Robert Morris, Ph.D., of the Teachers College, Columbia University, describe five facets of learning agility: Innovating: Agile learners are not afraid to challenge the status quo. Performing: Agile learners remain calm in the face of difficulty. Reflecting: Agile learners take time to reflect on their experiences. Risking: Agile learners purposefully put themselves in challenging situations. Defending: Agile learners are simply open to learning and resist the temptation to become defensive in the face of adversity.
