Key aspects of the process include determining measurable objectives, using a variety of instructional methods to achieve objectives, and evaluating learner behavior changes over time through methods like tests and observations. The overall goal is to design a curriculum and courses that meet learner needs through clear objectives and engaging learning experiences.
Strategies in teaching the least mastered skillsCarlo Magno
The document discusses strategies for teaching students who have not mastered important skills, including using formative assessment and mastery learning approaches. It emphasizes assessing student understanding through multiple measures over time to guide instruction, providing descriptive feedback, and allowing students to demonstrate mastery at their own pace through targeted instruction and practice. The goal is to help all students achieve proficiency based on clear learning standards.
This study aims to detect the impact of the modified learning cycle strategy on the development of habits of mind and skills of critical thinking in the ‘Islamic Education’ subject for 10th grade students in Jordan. To achieve this goal, the researcher used the semi-experimental approach, hence dividing the students into two groups: a control group and an experimental group. Each grouped consisted of (31) students. The modified learning cycle was applied to teach the experimental group, and the regular traditional strategy to the control group. The researcher prepared two studying tools: a measure of the habits of mind which consisted of (25) paragraph, and a critical thinking skills test which included (28) paragraph. Both tools were applied after assuring their validity and reliability. The results indicated a statistically significant difference for using the modified learning cycle strategy in the development of habits of mind and skills of critical thinking for the experimental group students compared to the control group students. The study, thus, stresses the need to apply the modified learning cycle in teaching the ‘Islamic Education’ subject due to its effectiveness in developing habits of mind and skills of critical thinking. The researcher also recommends conducting more research on the effectiveness of the modified learning cycle that concentrates on different variables.

The research process involves identifying a problem, planning to answer questions about the problem, implementing the plan, collecting data, and analyzing results. The document also discusses key aspects of research such as quantitative and qualitative approaches, research design, ethics, and the importance of literature review.
Theories of Teaching in Psychology -M.ed Levelfatima roshan
1) The document discusses different types of teaching theories including formal, descriptive, and normative theories. Formal theories are syntactic in nature while descriptive theories are based on observations of learner characteristics. Normative theories establish teaching standards based on human teachers and students.
2) Descriptive theories include theories of instruction like Gagne's hierarchical theory and Bruner's cognitive development theory. Prescriptive theories analyze teaching variables like teacher activities, educational objectives, and components of learning.
3) Normative theories include cognitive theory of teaching, theory of teacher behavior, and general theories of teaching. The cognitive theory addresses teacher roles and objectives. Theory of teacher behavior defines teacher acts that induce learning. General theories assume teaching produces student behavior
The document discusses different conceptions of teaching:
1. Science-research conceptions focus on operationalizing principles from educational research, following tested models of effective teaching. Approaches include audiolingualism, task-based language teaching, and learner training.
2. Theory-philosophy conceptions are based on educational theories like communicative language teaching and values-based approaches focus on embedding values in the curriculum.
3. Art-craft conceptions view teaching as inventing personalized practices for each unique situation based on assessing learner needs and possibilities. A good teacher selects effective options for their particular class.
The document discusses the inductive model of instruction proposed by Hilda Taba in 1962. Taba's model focuses on developing inductive thinking skills through three teaching strategies - concept formation, interpretation of data, and application of principles. The model is designed to create inductive thinking among learners through nine phases of cooperative classroom activities guided by clear teacher guidelines. Several articles are also summarized that examine the impact of inductive models on curriculum development, interest/identity development, achievement motivation, and grammar learning. Taba's inductive model is highlighted as an innovative approach to curriculum design that begins with instructional strategies rather than a general school plan.
The document discusses teaching and assessment strategies. It defines teaching as guiding students' development through imparting knowledge and skills in a systematic way to achieve learning goals. Various teaching strategies are described, including teacher-controlled, learner-controlled, and interactive approaches. Assessment strategies are meant to evaluate students' progress towards intended learning outcomes. Formative and summative assessments are discussed as well as continuous, norm-referenced, criterion-referenced, subjective, objective, and other approaches to evaluating students.
The document discusses the importance of sequencing learning objectives and curriculum. It notes that sequencing objectives in a logical order and considering relationships between objectives can help learning. Different sequencing methods are described such as from simple to complex, critical sequence, and relationships between objectives. The document also discusses Bloom's taxonomy of learning domains and the need for process-product research to relate instructional variables to student achievement. Problems with past process-product research are outlined.
Criteria for selection of educational objects in the process of curriculum ...International advisers
This document discusses the criteria for selecting educational objectives in the curriculum development process. It defines curriculum as the sum of all learner experiences guided by the school. The main elements of curriculum development are aims and objectives, content/subject matter, and methods of knowledge acquisition and evaluation. The process of curriculum development involves situational analysis, formulating objectives, selecting content, and establishing guidelines for selection. Content selection is based on priorities, balance, completeness, sequencing, comprehensiveness, and criteria such as being philosophically and psychologically sound as well as sociologically and culturally relevant.
Content is defined as “Information to be learned in school, another term for knowledge (a collection of facts, concept, generalization, principles, theories)”
A model is a three-dimensional representation of a person or thing or of a proposed structure, typically on a smaller scale than the original:"a model of St. Paul's Cathedral“
A Model is a pattern of something to be made or reproduced and means of transferring a relationship `or process from its real (actual) setting to one which it can be more conveniently studied.
This study developed and validated a Primary School Mathematics Motivation Scale (PSMMS) to measure motivation of primary school students towards learning mathematics. An initial 74-item scale was administered to 347 third and fourth grade students. Exploratory factor analysis revealed the scale measured a single factor explaining 42.46% of the variance. 33 items with loadings above 0.50 on this factor were retained in the final scale. The scale demonstrated good reliability with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.94. The results indicate the PSMMS is a valid and reliable measure of primary school students' motivation in mathematics that can be used in future educational research.
The document discusses key concepts related to student assessment including:
1) It defines terms like assessment, evaluation, measurement, formative assessment, placement assessment, diagnostic assessment, and summative assessment.
2) It differentiates between assessment, testing, measurement, and evaluation.
3) It discusses the purposes of assessment and the roles of assessment in instructional decisions.
4) It compares different types of assessment like diagnostic versus placement, and norm-referenced versus criterion-referenced.
5) It provides details on specific assessment methods like portfolios, performances, and guidelines for effective student assessment.
INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS OF BANGLADESH AND GLOBAL STUDIES (BGS) ASSESSMENT O...Md. Mehadi Rahman
The study determines to find out the present situation of Bangladesh and Global Studies test items/creative questions in Bangladesh. This descriptive study was conducted using
a concurrent triangulation research design. To conduct this study both quantitative and qualitative data were collected. 16 test of Bangladesh and Global Studies test items/creative
question papers of 2015 or 2016 were selected purposively as a sample from all educational boards. Bangladesh and Global Studies curriculum were analyzed to find out the major skills
reflected through the curriculum. 48 students were selected conveniently for an interview from those who had been passed the SSC examination of 2015 or 2016. For collecting data from
these sources, test analysis protocol, the curriculum content reading protocol and interview protocol were used as research tools. Test analysis protocol consisted of two criteria; wording
criteria and practising criteria. Selected test items were analyzed based on these two criteria and Bloom’s cognitive domain. The study revealed that there was an imbalance in wording criteria and practising criteria of test items. SSC examination test items didn’t reflect the major skills of the curriculum appropriately. Most of the test items promoted students lower level learning and ignored higher level learning
The document discusses various determinants of learning including the nurse educator's role, assessing learning needs, readiness to learn, and learning styles. It provides details on:
1) Methods to assess learning needs such as interviews, questionnaires, and observations. The educator must identify needs, prioritize them, and ensure resources are available.
2) Components of readiness to learn including physical, emotional, experiential, and knowledge readiness.
3) Learning style models like Brain Preference Indicator and Kolb's Learning Style Inventory which assess visual, auditory, kinesthetic styles. Interpretation of styles requires caution.
The document discusses various topics related to assessment of learning, including the key differences between norm-referenced tests and criterion-referenced tests. It also covers the different types of assessment (placement, diagnostic, formative, and summative), modes of assessment (traditional, performance, portfolio), and the importance of aligning objectives, instruction, and assessment. Well-written instructional objectives should be student-oriented, observable, sequentially appropriate, attainable, and developmentally appropriate. Validity and reliability are important factors to consider when constructing good test items.
This document discusses a study on the relationship between learners' preferences and teaching strategies in teaching mathematics to fourth year high school students in Mabitac, Laguna, Philippines. The study is guided by learning style and multiple intelligence theories. The independent variables are learners' preferences (visual, auditory, kinesthetic, analytic, global) and teaching strategies (lecture, problem solving, cooperative learning, direct teaching, indirect teaching). The dependent variable is teaching strategies. The study aims to determine the relationship between learners' preferences and teaching strategies in teaching mathematics.
The importance of intervention in developing self regulated learnersAlexander Decker
This document discusses a study on developing self-regulated learners through intervention. The study investigated students' motivational levels and use of learning strategies in history before and after an intervention program integrating self-regulatory strategies. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected to gain insight into the effectiveness of the intervention. Results from questionnaires and interviews showed both convergence and divergence in students' responses about particular self-regulatory constructs before and after the intervention. The findings provide information for teachers and policymakers to design contexts that help students better regulate their learning.

This document discusses criteria for assessing curriculum. It defines criteria as standards used to evaluate different elements of the curriculum. Goals and objectives are important criteria as they indicate what students should learn. Effective goals and objectives are specific, measurable, aligned with student performance, and address both knowledge and behaviors. There are also criteria for assessing instruction, such as whether it uses a direct "supplantive" approach or constructivist "generative" approach. A good curriculum is continuously evolving, based on student needs, has logical sequencing, and educational quality.
The document discusses differentiated instruction in the K-12 curriculum. It provides an overview of differentiated instruction, which recognizes students' varying needs and abilities. Teachers take on roles as designers, assessors, and facilitators of learning to ensure all students' growth. The K-12 curriculum aims to develop globally competitive graduates and considers students' readiness, interests, and learning profiles when differentiating content, process, products, and environment. Effective differentiated instruction involves understanding students and aligning tasks and objectives to their learning goals.
Students come into our courses with knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes gained in other courses and through daily life. As students bring this knowledge to bear in our classrooms, it influences how they filter and interpret what they are learning. If students’ prior knowledge is robust and accurate and activated at the appropriate time, it provides a strong foundation for building new knowledge. However, when knowledge is inert, insufficient for the task, activated inappropriately, or inaccurate, it can interfere with or impede new learning. To apply this principle, consider the following teaching techniques:
Administer a diagnostic assessment or have students assess their own prior knowledge (See “Selected Classroom Assessment Techniques (CATs) for Getting Feedback on Student Learning”).
Use brainstorming to reveal prior knowledge.
Identify discipline-specific conventions explicitly.
Ask students to make and test predictions (See “Teaching for Retention in Science, Engineering & Mathematics”).

This document discusses criteria for curriculum assessment. It defines criteria as standards used to evaluate curriculum elements. Criteria determine competency levels. Goals and objectives provide direction for curriculum and instruction. They should be specific, measurable, and related to student performance levels, content, behaviors, and conditions. Effective goals meet syntactic, legal, knowledge-behavior, stranger, and validity tests. Curriculum evaluation assesses if objectives are addressed, content is sequenced properly, and students are engaged as intended. Formative evaluation occurs during instruction while summative evaluation happens after to determine outcomes. The document provides detailed guidelines for developing high-quality curriculum, goals, objectives, instructional approaches, and evaluation.

This document contains a learning plan template for a 5th grade math class. It includes sections on fostering student ownership, learning objectives, assessments, questioning/feedback, and references. The template provides guidance for teachers in developing instructional strategies, checking student understanding, communicating objectives, using formative/summative assessments, and promoting higher-order thinking.
The document discusses teaching metacognition to improve student learning. Metacognition involves planning, monitoring progress, and adapting learning strategies. There are three steps to teaching metacognition: 1) teaching students that their ability to learn is mutable, 2) teaching goal-setting and planning, and 3) giving students opportunities to practice self-monitoring and adapting. Wrappers, or activities that surround assignments, can be used to teach self-monitoring by having students assess their understanding before and after tasks and receiving feedback to improve accuracy. Teaching metacognition through these steps and techniques has been shown to boost student learning and performance.
The effects of using game in cooperative learning strategy on learning outco...Eva Handriyantini
The game in learning can be used to increase the learning motivation of students, and having a contribution to development of students learning outcome. Research design used in this research is factorial non-equivalent control group design, where the research subject is students at 4th grade at SDN Lowokwaru III, Malang. Moderator variables in this research are learning motivations, grouped into high learning motivation and low learning motivation. Data analysis technique used in this research is ANCOVA ( Analysis of Covariance ) rank two 2x2. The instruments used in the learning motivation in this research adopting from Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) (Pintrich et. al., 1990). A scale of measurement a motivation in MSLQ contains 3 a major component indicators: (1) Intrinsic Goal Orientation; (2) Extrinsic Goal Orientation; (3) Task Value; (4) Control Beliefs; (5) Self-Efficacy; (6) Test anxiety. Based on data analysis, research outcome can be summarized as follows: (1) there is difference between average learning result of student group which use game-assisted cooperative learning strategy and average learning result of student group which use cooperative learning strategy without game; (2) there is difference between average learning result of students whohave low learning motivationand average learning result of students who have high learning motivation at all treatment groups; (3) there is significant difference of average learning result based on interaction between treatment group with game-assisted cooperative learning strategy and treatment group with non-game-assisted cooperative learning strategy, and learning motivation (low and high).
This document summarizes discussions from groups at the 2008 APA National Conference on various topics related to undergraduate psychology education. Key recommendations included defining psychological literacy as an outcome for psychology students, assessing teaching quality based on student work and reflective teaching practices, requiring core courses in research methods and specific content domains with ethics and diversity integrated, and being aware of student demographics and developmental needs in curriculum and climate.
This document provides an overview of assessment, grading, and reporting. It discusses different forms of assessment including formative and summative assessment. It notes that assessment systems differ around the world, with some countries relying more on national tests while others emphasize formative assessment conducted by teachers. The document also discusses student portfolios, authentic assessment, and challenges with high-stakes standardized testing. Record-keeping, communicating results to parents, and integrating technology into assessment are also summarized. Overall, the document surveys a variety of topics related to assessment practices.
The document discusses various criteria for curriculum assessment, goals and objectives, instruction, and evaluation. It provides:
1. Criteria are standards used to assess different elements of the curriculum and determine competency levels. Goals and objectives must reflect curriculum domains and student needs.
2. There are two approaches to instruction - supplantive is teacher-directed while generative is student-directed. The appropriate approach depends on student and task factors.
3. Evaluation determines the value or achievement of goals by collecting assessment data and making inferences. Formative evaluation provides ongoing feedback while summative evaluation assesses learning at the end.

From Concept to reality : Implementing Lean Managements DMAIC Methodology for...Rokibul Hasan
The Ready-Made Garments (RMG) industry in Bangladesh is a cornerstone of the economy, but increasing costs and stagnant productivity pose significant challenges to profitability. This study explores the implementation of Lean Management in the Sampling Section of RMG factories to enhance productivity. Drawing from a comprehensive literature review, theoretical framework, and action research methodology, the study identifies key areas for improvement and proposes solutions.
Through the DMAIC approach (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control), the research identifies low productivity as the primary problem in the Sampling Section, with a PPH (Productivity per head) of only 4.0. Using Lean Management techniques such as 5S, Standardized work, PDCA/Kaizen, KANBAN, and Quick Changeover, the study addresses issues such as pre and post Quick Changeover (QCO) time, improper line balancing, and sudden plan changes.
The research employs regression analysis to test hypotheses, revealing a significant correlation between reducing QCO time and increasing productivity. With a regression equation of Y = -0.000501X + 6.72 and an R-squared value of 0.98, the study demonstrates a strong relationship between the independent variables (QCO downtime and improper line balancing downtime) and the dependent variable (productivity per head).
The findings suggest that by implementing Lean Management practices and addressing key productivity inhibitors, RMG factories can achieve substantial improvements in efficiency and profitability. The study provides valuable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers seeking to enhance productivity in the RMG industry and similar manufacturing sectors.

m249-saw PMI To familiarize the soldier with the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon ...LinghuaKong2
M249 Saw marksman PMIThe Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW), or 5.56mm M249 is an individually portable, gas operated, magazine or disintegrating metallic link-belt fed, light machine gun with fixed headspace and quick change barrel feature. The M249 engages point targets out to 800 meters, firing the improved NATO standard 5.56mm cartridge.The SAW forms the basis of firepower for the fire team. The gunner has the option of using 30-round M16 magazines or linked ammunition from pre-loaded 200-round plastic magazines. The gunner's basic load is 600 rounds of linked ammunition.The SAW was developed through an initially Army-led research and development effort and eventually a Joint NDO program in the late 1970s/early 1980s to restore sustained and accurate automatic weapons fire to the fire team and squad. When actually fielded in the mid-1980s, the SAW was issued as a one-for-one replacement for the designated "automatic rifle" (M16A1) in the Fire Team. In this regard, the SAW filled the void created by the retirement of the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) during the 1950s because interim automatic weapons (e.g. M-14E2/M16A1) had failed as viable "base of fire" weapons.
Early in the SAW's fielding, the Army identified the need for a Product Improvement Program (PIP) to enhance the weapon. This effort resulted in a "PIP kit" which modifies the barrel, handguard, stock, pistol grip, buffer, and sights.
The M249 machine gun is an ideal complementary weapon system for the infantry squad platoon. It is light enough to be carried and operated by one man, and can be fired from the hip in an assault, even when loaded with a 200-round ammunition box. The barrel change facility ensures that it can continue to fire for long periods. The US Army has conducted strenuous trials on the M249 MG, showing that this weapon has a reliability factor that is well above that of most other small arms weapon systems. Today, the US Army and Marine Corps utilize the license-produced M249 SAW.

Many companies have perceived CRM that accompanied by numerous
uncoordinated initiatives as a technological solution for problems in
individual areas. However, CRM should be considered as a strategy when
a company decides to implement it due to its humanitarian, technological
and process-related effects (Mendoza et al., 2007, p. 913). CRM is
evolving today as it should be seen as a strategy for maintaining a longterm relationship with customers.
A CRM business strategy includes the internet with the marketing,
sales, operations, customer services, human resources, R&D, finance, and
information technology departments to achieve the company’s purpose and
maximize the profitability of customer interactions (Chen and Popovich,
2003, p. 673).
After Corona Virus Disease-2019/Covid-19 (Coronavirus) first

Presentation Outline
3. Problem Statement
• Statistics is difficult to learn and teach.
• Adults require specific methods when learning.
• Teaching adults is contingent on different elements. Therefore a
lecturer needs to react accordingly to these.
• When teaching adults a lecturer needs leadership skills. Thus
leadership skills need to be combined with adult teaching skills
4. Research Questions & Purpose of the Research
Main research questions
• What are adult specific needs when learning -> Validating the theory of
andragogy
• What are the contingent elements in statistics courses for adults?
• How can the situational or contingency theory of leadership contribute to
improve adult education (specifically in the case of statistics courses)?
Purpose of the research
Amalgamate the answers of the above questions into a model that helps
improving courses for adult learners especially in the context of statistics.
5. Original Contribution
1. Finding contingent elements within the setting of adult
education
2. Confirming the assumption that the cultural process of
growing up is lagging behind the biological coming of age.
3. Staged Andragogical Model (SAM)
7. Theoretical Framework
• Fiedler’s Contingency Model
• Vroom–Yetton Decision-Making Theory
• Blake and Mouton’s Managerial (Leadership) Grid
• Situational Leadership Theory by Hersey and Blanchard
• The Staged Self-Directed Learning Model
• Jarvis’ Theory on Adult Learning
• Knud Illeris’ Model of Three-Dimensional Learning
• Self-Regulated Learning
• Knowles’ Andragogy
9. Research Hypotheses Concerning Andragogy
(Adult Education)
1. Adult learners need to know the importance and value of the
academic subject
2. Adult learners have a mature self-concept and feel responsible
for their own
3. The foundation of adult learning is primarily based on the
learner’s own work
4. Adults learn because a subject has relevance to their lives
5. Adult learners are oriented towards problem-centred learning.
6. Adult learners are intrinsically motivated in their studies
10. Research Hypotheses Concerning Contingency
1. Contingent elements do exist in the area of interdisciplinary
skills acquisition, such as statistics courses for adults.
2. Depending on the contingency, there are different needs.
3. The two main hypotheses result in the following overall cause-
and-effect hypothesis:
– If contingent elements in adult learning can be located, then only a
differentiated teaching-learning setting along the contingency borders will
help satisfy the practical needs of the adult learner.
11. Methodology: Empirical Part
• In the empirical part a quantitative research design was adopted. Data of 120
students of statics courses at University of Zurich were collected and
analysed
• The questionnaire consisted of three parts:
– Attributes of the participants like age, sex, affiliation
– Questions about the importance of adult educational methods (andragogy)
– An instrument (SDLRSNE) Fisher, M., King, J., & Tague, G. (2001) for detecting self-
directed learning.
12. Methodology: Inductive Part
• Based on the theory and the results of the data analysis a new model was
developed inductively => Staged Andragogical Model (SAM)
Note: This is directly connected to the main cause and effect hypothesis:
If contingent elements in adult learning can be located, then only a differentiated teaching-
learning setting along the contingency borders will help satisfy the practical needs of the adult
learner
13. Results
Importance of andragogical methods (Knowles, Holton, & Swanson, 2005,)
on a scale from 1 to 10:
1. The need to know (t = 7.33 , p < 0.001)
2. The self-concept of the learner (t = 6.62 , p < 0.001)
3. The experience of the learner (t = 13.93 , p < 0.001)
4. Readiness to learn (t = 28.00 , p < 0.001)
5. Orientation to learning (need for context oriented
learning) (t =3.44 , p < 0.001)
6. Motivation (t = 22.28 , p < 0.001)
14. Results: Contingencies - Age
Mean score
need for andragogical methods:
Group 1 (younger 27.5
years):
6.8
Group 2 (older 27.5
years):
7.4
Relation between age and
andragogy for the two groups
15. Results: Self-Directed Learning and andragogy
Higher scores of Self-Directed
Learning show higher s demand for
andragogical methods.
Exception: Doctoral Fellows
Correlation between Self-Directed
Learning and andragogy:
Students: 0.394 (p=0.020)
Employees: 0.517 (p=0.010)
Doctoral Fellows: 0.036
Consequence: adult learners with a low self-directed learning
score tend to need less andragogical methods! This can be called
maturity factor.
16. Results: Situational differences between groups
Students, employees
or doctoral fellows
have different
andragogical needs.
Thus one can assume
that according to their
situation, a specific
teaching setting is
required.
17. Results: Highest situational differences between
groups – inferential analysis
Although there can be detected a difference for all postulates, we will concentrate
on the conspicuous differences. These are need to know and self-concept. The
gap there is decisively higher than with the rest of the postulates.
Both mean differences are elevated and highly significant. For need to know it is 1.76
(t = –3.97, p < 0.001), and for self-concept we get a value of 1.35 (t = –2.95, p=0.002).
18. Interim Conclusions from the Deductive Part
• Andragogical methods were validated statistically ✔
• Contingent or situational elements could be isolated ✔
– Age-related dependency for the need of andragogy ✔
– The importance of andragogy is different for students, employees or
doctoral fellows ✔
– Self-directed learning is unequal for the different groups ✔
Foundation for the new model called the
Staged Andragogical Model
19. Visualizing the Contingencies with a Multiple
Correspondence Analysis (MCA)
MCA plots different variables as distances in a 2-dimensional space. The closer two variables
are, the higher their relation is.
21. Learning Maturity Levels
Learning maturity level 1 (LML 1): These learners are dependent and act according to the
principles of pedagogy instead of andragogy. There skills are not developed; e.g., their existing
knowledge of statistics is at a low or basic level. In a statistics course, these learners want to
learn the basic knowhow.
Learning maturity level 2 (LML 2): At this stage, the learner is interested in andragogy but
still grounded in pedagogic concepts of teaching and learning. The skills are not developed, and in
courses they seek a basic knowhow. knowledge of statistics is at a low or basic level. In a
statistics course, they want to learn the basic knowhow.
Learning maturity level 3 (LML 3): Adults in this level are involved and ready for andragogy.
They clearly stepped out of pedagogy, and their need towards andragogical principle is high.
Their skills are not yet highly developed, yet they are not basic. In the course, they ask for a
deeper insight of statistics, often combined with the wish of refreshing their existing
knowledge.
Learning maturity level 4 (LML 4): The highest level denotes learners who are self-
determined and act in full compliance with andragogy. Their skills are high, and in a course, they
seek specialisation.
25. Applying SAM to Statistic Courses for Adults
• LML 1: Students, younger than 27.5, need to know low, self-concept low, low
self-directed learning behaviour.
• LML 2: Students, younger than 27.5.
• LML 3: Learners older than 27.5, employed researchers, doctoral fellows.
• LML 4: Learners older than 27.5, employed researchers, need to know high,
self-concept low. High self-directed learning behaviour.
The lecturer needs to address/differentiate the following learning types:
26. Situational Teaching According to the Learning
Maturity Levels (LML 1-4)
According the different learning groups different stages or styles are to be applied:
Stage 1:
• Introduce and explain a statistical
program (e.g., SPSS or R)
• Introduce basic descriptive statistics
with only one variable
• Explain the different data scales
• Use charts extensively
• Use cookbook instructions
Stage 2:
• Complex descriptive statistics with
more than one variable
• Practical and applied examples
• Introducing statistical thinking
• Introduction of inferential statistics
• Associations
Stage 3:
• Delve into inferential statistics
• Introduce working in groups and
employ use cases
• Connect the dots by using
comprehensive exercises
Stage 4:
• Learners bring their own use cases
• Situational teaching in dependency
of the students’ needs
• Introducing specific statistical
procedures
28. Conclusions
Based on the theory of Knowles (1980, 1984, 2005), the research analysed the needs
of adult learners. For this purpose, a dedicated questionnaire was designed and tested.
Our final sample consisted of 119 adult course participants who completed in the
questions of the instrument. The collected data were analysed, and the results could
back the theory of andragogy. This helped answer the question as to what the concrete
needs of adult learners are. Though the analysis’ results helped build a foundation for
adult education in the form of Knowles’ andragogy, the analysis also evidenced that
there are essential differences among adult learners. Thus, it was reckoned that
andragogy is a valid concept, but it needs to be extended.
So the need of finding situational or contingent elements was a very practical exigency.
Various such elements could be detected, and the significant results were isolated.
The most important of these are age, self-directed learning behaviour, and self-
concept.
Based on these findings, the research tried to induce a new model called SAM (Staged
Andragogical Model) that follows the principles of the Situational Leadership
Theory (SLT) of Blanchard and Hersey (1977, 2008).
29. Recommendations
The results and the proposed SAM certainly represent an original contribution
to the research on adult education, specifically to teaching statistics. Nevertheless,
there remain open questions or non-conclusive matters. As a proposition, the following
topics need to be investigated further:
• To what extend can SAM be called a generic model? In the research at hand, SAM is
called a generic model, but it proposes solutions merely for teaching statistics. It would
be helpful to crosscheck the model with samples that come from a neutral or at least
different environment than statistics.
• Four learning maturity levels and their properties could be identified. But there is no
detailed suggestion for a self-assessment. It is certainly an interesting outlook to generate
an instrument that could assess the learning level maturity. Based on the used
questionnaire in the research, a reduced form could theoretically be created.
