Understanding
Adult Learning
“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty
or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young.”
― Henry Ford
“I hear and I forget, I see I remember, I do I
understand”
― Confucius
“Intellectual growth should commence at birth and
cease only at death.”
― Albert Einstein
Understanding Adult Learning
Process
The field of adult learning was pioneered by Malcolm Shepherd
Knowles. He identified the following 6 characteristics of adult
learners (more familiarly known as adult learning Principles):
1. Autonomous and self-directed
2. Experiences and knowledge
3. Goal-oriented
4. Relevancy-oriented
5. Practical
6. Need to be shown respect

The Didactic "Teacher  Student
Method
Student
Small and unimportant
Little knowledge about the topic
Must keep quiet during lecture
Has no experience to share
Teacher
Very big and important
Ignores students’
experience
Full of knowledge
 The didactic Teacher-Student Method is often not an effective
training model for adults for two reasons.
1. It disregards a very important resource - the students'
knowledge and experience.
2. Adults learn better and remember what they learned when
they:
 Hear information
 See demonstrations and illustrations
 Discuss information and ideas
 Practice techniques

learning as relevant to their needs.
 Provide "real life" situations and emphasize
the application of learning to real problems.
 Identify learners' needs and what is important
to them.
Adults have unique learning styles.
They learn in different ways, at
different rates, and from different
experiences.
 Use a variety of training techniques.
 Establish an atmosphere of respect and
understanding of differences.
Participants bring relevant and
important knowledge and experiences
to the workshop.
 Provide opportunities for sharing information.
 Discuss and analyze participants' experiences.
 Use participants as a resource and encourage
them to participate and share their
experiences.
Pedagogy Vs Andragogy
Pedagogy
•It is the method of teaching
children.
•Learners are dependent.
•Learners have less or no
experience to share, hence
teaching becomes didactic.
•Learners learn whatever the
curriculum offers.
•Teachers are required to
direct the learner.
•Learning is curriculum
oriented
Andragogy

Learners are independent.
Learners are experienced, hence
teaching involves, discussion,
problem solving etc.
The content has to be modified
according to the learners’ need.
The learners are self-motivated.
Learners need teachers to guide
them.
Learning is goal oriented.
