Study: College graduates often challenged with life skills, motivation for ongoing learning
Wednesday, January 6, 2016
Today’s college graduates tend to be highly trained and employable but often lack a key skill needed for post-college life: how to identify and ask their own questions, according to a new study. The finding comes from a report by Project Information Literacy, an ongoing research group based in the University of Washington Information School and led by principal research scientist Alison Head. The team’s report — its eighth — is titled “Staying Smart: How Today’s Graduates Continue to Learn Once They Complete College,” and was published today on the project’s website.
