Did You Learn Anything Useful in School?

As part of a series of back-to-school and back-to-the-daily-grind articles, eWEEK editors want know what the most important thing you learned in school was--that is, the thing that you have been able to apply in countless ways, or keep coming back to, at work everyday.

For some, it might be some core time management skills. For others, it could be something a Psych professor said about dealing with difficult people. Heck, it might even be how to nap at your desk in a way that nobody notices!

Whatever it is, funny, serious or nostalgic, we're all ears so feel free to leave your input in the comments, or you can email it directly to dperelma [at] ziffdavis [dot] com.

Thank you.

Steve Hall :

It's not about "What" you learn in school...it's all about that "You learn How to Learn". You can't learn enought stuff in 2 or 4 years of college to last a life-time. We all know we learn more during our lives after college than we actually learned during school. Successfull people become Life-Long Learners. The school/college years are all about learning how to learn, how to ask questions, learning that no one has all the answers, learning how to research a problem and formulate an informed opinion. Hopefully, most of all....learning about the fun and enjoyment of expanding our knowledge and understanding of the world we live in.
