Dispositions are behaviors, attitudes, and habits of mind that shape a person's learning and development over time. They are important for lifelong learning because they enable learners to approach new challenges with curiosity, flexibility, and perseverance. Dispositions in learning promote a growth mindset and give learners the "tools" to embrace challenges as opportunities rather than obstacles to overcome.
