3. The fundamentals of heutagogy

4. Stewart Hase & Chris Kenyon
• Heutagogy Fundamentals;
• Self-determined learning has a focus on what the
learner wants to learn & how they might learn it
• 7 elements; Approval, facilitators, choice,
agreement, review, assessment, feedback
• Benefits; empowerment, capabilities, open-ended
• Challenges; facilitation, time, culture, assessment

5. Stewart Hase & Chris Kenyon
• What is the Nature of Learning?
• Andragogy&heutagogy underpinned by humanism and
constructivism;Andragogy with motivation heutagogy
with double-loop learning, which challenges deepest
values, beliefs and ways of knowing.
• Learning is a complex interaction of myriad influences
including genes, neurophysiology, physical state, social
experiences, and psychological factors The learner may
end up making a whole bunch of cognitive leaps and
end up seeing the world in completely different ways

6. Applying Heutagogy in
Formal Education

7. Bob Dick
• Crafting The Context…
• Crafting learner-centred processes requires
7elements; group formation, community
building, meeting previous cohort, contact with
practitioners, life and career planning,
experiential learning, course design
• To elicit constructive behaviours and rules
• Assessment needs to negotiated&the
organisation managed.
• Learner-centred activities have universal aspects
challenge, autonomy, support

8. Lisa-Marie Blashke
• Self-Determined Learning Skills (and e-learning)
• New technology features; connectivity &social rapport,
content discovery & sharing, content creation, knowledge
& information aggregation & content modification
• Heutagogy is; double-loop learning, capability
development, learner-directed learning, non-linear design
& learning approach, group collaboration
• Heutagogy & new technology needs– #digital literacy
skills, co-creating communities of learning, online reflective
journals, scaffoldedlearning process, formative and
negotiated assessment, exploration &experimentation,
open learning environments.

9. Trevor Kerry
• Principles of Heutagogy & Post-Grad Distance Learning;
• Tutorials need; speed, tone, student expertise, learning
alongside, encouraging independence, pastoral concern.
• Heutagogical Principles; a) Learning when the learner is
ready, b) Learning is a complex process, c) Learning
triggered by the learner, d) Student-centred >producing>
• Heutagogigical Capabilities; self-sufficiency in learning,
reflexivity, applicability of what is learnt, positive learning
values
• In e-contexts learners need; a) ability to learn for
themselves,b) belief in their power to learnc) exercise
powers of judgement

10. Mike Ramsey, John Hurley, Gavin Neilson
• Workplace Learning for Nurses;
• Nursing as an emergent profession learning from
professional practice needs a progressive student
based capability hierarchy moving onwards from being
pedagogy-capable to heutagogy-capable
• Increasingly complex set of learning capabilities;
knowledge, practice, skills, attitudes.
• Transforming clinical practice-based learning; needs
mentors who keep learningcyclical &enable student
reflection. Students who question theory, are critical
of practice, explore own values – even when this is
discomforting for mentors…

11. Barbara Brandt
• The Learners Perspective;
• Heutagogy as alter-ego. Using Stewart Hase, Edward
Taylor, Ian Baptiste
• “I learnt to do school at a very young age” – find out
what the teacher wants/do it/reap rewards of good
grades. Learning that I wanted to do I did in my own
time.
• In self-determined learning I could trust the negotiation
process of reading and assessment. I trusted other
students and remembered the considerable personal
growth from stepping out of my comfort zone
• “Enjoying this bit of informal e-learning”

12. Heutagogy in the wider
Educational World

13. Fred Garnett
• Learning Creativity - All You Need is Heutagogy;
• The Beatles heutagogy was expressed in their time
in the workshop of Abbey Road Studio 2 creating
unique song soundscapes during 1966/67
• The Beatles reconfigured themselves as a
metaphor, Sgt Pepper, freeing themselves from
expectations.
• Their heutagogy developed after the Romantic
metacognitive inventiveness applied to their lyrics
after meeting Dylan was applied to the studio to
create the album as a new cultural artefact (64)

14. Ronan O’Beirne, Fred Garnett
• Putting Heutagogy into informal e-learning
• Making learning fit for context
• In developing informal e-learning we had seen the
value of putting andragogy into learning design.
• The interdisciplinary learner-generated contexts
research group argued for treating the world as an
“ecology of resources” and built the open context
model of learning based on the development
framework the Pedagogy Andragogy Heutagogy
Continuum – enabling agency & structure across all
sectors of learning.

16. Jane Eberle
• Lifelong learning
• Heutagogy, with its feature of double-loop
learning, is not just for adult learners. It allows
for freedom of thought, original ideas and the
opportunity to enrich learning by active
participation.
• Combined with Universal Design for Learninga
template that can be developed to allow
instructors and students alike to be creative and
enjoy a mutual respect of ideas

17. Stewart Hase
• Learner-defined learning
• Combined with systems thinking and the search
conference technique heutagogy can provide
potentially exciting training programmes allowing
contextto be determined by and application to
be driven by the learner.
• The facilitator needs to develop skills in
managing groups using a Socratic rather than a
directive technique and allow a dynamic
environment to be quickly created.

18. Natalie Canning
• Practitioner Development in early years education
• Participants recognised the significance of engaging
with heutagogic strategies to support their reflective
practice as they developed their professional
identity &personal empowerment by investing
emotional energy in learning;
• Building knowledge and understanding,Changing &
influencing others,Improving quality
provision,Identifying where practice could develop,
&Enabling their personal & professional transition.

19. Boon HouTay
• Transitioning from Pedagogy to Heutagogy;
• A three stage learning process from pedagogy to
andragogy to heutagogy through aesthetic
appreciation that affords keen pleasure to the
senses and charms the intellectual faculties.
• The process emphasizes a holistic development
in the learner of an independent capability, the
capacity for questioning ones
values&assumptions and to make unknowns

20. Roslyn Foskey
• Innovations in Community Education;
• Aligning the concept of adult learning with heutagogy
provides insights on reflexivity that occurs when
interactive theatre is used in community learning.
• Interactive theatre is emergent, self-organised,
adaptive& dynamic moving from scripted scenes to
improvised performance through audience engagement
with actors. We see the benefits of adopting a creative
learner-determined process of engagement & the
importance of the learning environment.

21. Stewart Hase
• Heutagogy in Action; where to next?
• Game-changers in education; the rapid rise of
information technology “experience does not exist until
it has been communicated through #socialmedia”
• Individual curricula NOT national curricula
• Mastery of competencies – demonstrating capability
• Changing educational policy from fixed assumptions
about teacher-centric education – double-loop thinking
for policy makers?
