The document discusses motivating adult learners in online education programs. It addresses the challenges adult learners face including financial issues, abuse, family responsibilities, and lack of motivation. The author argues that educators often fail to create social learning environments that promote initiative and creativity, and don't establish trust within the learning environment. To motivate adult learners, educators must understand learning styles and cognitive skills, provide positive reinforcement, teach retention of information, and help with transferring existing knowledge to new subjects. Connectivism and constructive learning are important frameworks. Educators should actively involve learners and help them see how education can meet career goals.
This document discusses learning styles and provides an inventory for readers to determine their cognitive preferences. It describes the three main learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Visual learners prefer using handouts, videos, and demonstrations. Auditory learners benefit from lectures and study groups. Kinesthetic learners learn best through physical movement, games, and role plays. The document emphasizes that while everyone uses all three styles, having an awareness of one's preference can improve communication and learning by tailoring study methods accordingly.
This presentation discusses two learning theories: operant conditioning and constructivism. It provides background on the history and theorists behind each theory. For operant conditioning, it discusses B.F. Skinner's work and how adults respond to positive and negative feedback. For constructivism, it discusses Jean Piaget, John Dewey, Lev Vygotsky, and Jerome Bruner's contributions and how learners construct new ideas based on prior knowledge. The presentation also explores how each theory can impact adult education environments. The conclusion reflects on how learning theories overlap and no single theory provides all answers, but together they help educators support learning.

This document discusses five learning theories: behaviorist, humanist, cognitivist, social cognitivist, and constructivist. It focuses on explaining two examples - Robert Gagne's cognitive theory of instructional design and Albert Bandura's social learning theory. Gagne's theory proposes nine events of instruction including gaining attention, informing learners of objectives, and providing feedback. Bandura's social learning theory posits that people learn from observing and imitating others and that attention, retention, reproduction, and motivation are necessary for effective modeling. The theories can be applied to areas like web-based learning, behavior modification, and understanding psychological disorders.

Adult learners are autonomous, self-directed, goal-oriented, and relevancy-focused. They learn best when communication is clear, simple, and relevant. Barriers to adult learning include a lack of motivation or respect. There are four learning styles - activist, theorist, pragmatist, and reflector - and the learning cycle involves engaging, exploring, explaining, extending, and evaluating. When teaching adults, it is important to consider equal opportunities, health and safety, data protection, copyright law, and communication best practices of clarity, simplicity and relevance.
The document discusses misconceptions about adult learning and provides insights from research. It notes that adult learners have different experiences than traditional students and bring their worldviews to learning. Experiential learning helps adults apply their experiences. Additionally, adult students face unique challenges with time, money, motivation, and need for self-directed learning. The document advocates for an andragogical teaching approach that embraces adults' experiences and self-direction through a mentorship role for educators.
Principles of non formal adult educationKiyomi Gaines
This document provides guidance on training principles for non-formal adult education. It discusses managing training sessions, characteristics of adult learning, and learning styles. Adults learn best when training is immediately useful and when they can actively participate by sharing knowledge and problem-solving. The adult learning cycle involves experiencing new concepts, reflecting on them, making generalizations, and deciding how to apply the information. Trainers should engage participants through this cycle and account for different learning styles such as imaginative, analytical, common sense, and dynamic. Effective training presentations recognize adult needs, guide participants through the learning cycle, and engage each learning style.
