Learning to know needs much emphasis at present day world because everything cannot be taught - knowledge is getting so vast. Even the skills are so rapidly changing. In a French review of their education system at the turn of millennium, they came up with the term adaptability in answer to the same question. You can not predict so rapidly changing trends - the best you can do is to prepare people to adapt to the situation. It more concretely applies in the skills (learning to do).
One has to translate these pillars into one's context. First condition of adaptability is to learn that everything is contextual and at the same time there is a core that is applicable everywhere.
