Education faces a crisis: teacher attrition, rising mental health issues, and growing student disengagement. As AI transforms learning, many students lack the skills to study effectively or use technology critically. This paper highlights the urgent need to teach “how to learn” before “how to use AI.” Drawing on learning science, pedagogy, neuroscience, and social behaviour, it advocates embedding metacognitive and strategy based learning skills early to foster independence and adaptability.
