Aging Strategy
“Learning is an important aging
strategy to help you remain vital
in your later years.”
--Erik Erikson
“ Anyone who stops learning is old,
whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who
keeps learning stays young. The greatest
thing in life is to keep your mind young.”
—Henry Ford
Erik Erikson
A pioneering theorist in adult
life-span development,
believes seniors should
remain in the system of
formal education to stay vital
in later life.
Conversely, he believed that
older people would help
formal education stay vital.
