Today\u2019s show is about two different cultures, and they have nothing to do with nationality or geography. We are talking about the culture of young people and old people &#8211; and we will focus on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2016\/06\/160616105917.htm\">learning cultures<\/a>. Have you ever wondered whether YOU will carry on learning all your life or whether you will stop at some point? Or perhaps there is no age limit to learning? Do you believe in lifelong learning? We interview young and old learners to find out about their learning habits. Our first guest is Dr. Beatrice Bl\u00fcggel from Germany, who is the director of a large adult education institution. Our\u00a0 second guest, Luis Iglesias, from Portugal is a 29-year-old master student who is currently socializing with younger students during his semester abroad.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely quick<\/strong><br \/>In our first category, we hear from Beatrice who is the director of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vhs-aachen.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Volkshochschule Aachen<\/a>, a large adult education Institution and she has personal experience teaching students ranging from 18 to 80. She explains the cultural differences between different age groups and how these different cultures can work together in the same classroom if they have a common interest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely incorrect<\/strong><br \/>In our second category, Kalvin interviews a diverse group of exchange students about their opinions on different learning cultures of different <a href=\"https:\/\/www.careerplanner.com\/Career-Articles\/Generations.cfm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">age groups<\/a> and gets a very\u00a0 diverse range of answers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely chillaxed<\/strong><br \/>In our third category, Luis Iglesias, 29, tells us what integrating into a group of university students who are\u00a0 up to nine years younger than him means, and how <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Maturity_(psychological)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">maturity<\/a> influences learning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Although we often think education is only for the young, perhaps there are some big advantages which age can bring. It is not often that we see a CEO or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usnews.com\/news\/politics\/slideshows\/the-10-youngest-presidents\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">political leader<\/a> in their 20s or 30s.
