How do we now define "Learner"?

A learner is someone, especially a child who learns, as from a teacher or takes up knowledge or beliefs who is in the process of learning something or acquiring knowledge (Princeton's Word Net, Not dated). A learner has no specific age, gender or race. There are no limitations on what a learner is, as long as they are in the process of obtaining knowledge, information, beliefs, morals, values etc. they are considered a learner. To be more specific a learner in the 21st century is very interactive, social, they are increasingly digital, constantly connected and always have access to information that they need. They are critical thinkers and evaluators (Slideshare.net, 2012).
