The Adult Learner: The Definitive Classic in Adult Education and Human Resource Development

How do you tailor education to the learning needs of adults? Do they learn differently from children? How does their life experience inform their learning processes? These were the questions at the heart of Malcolm Knowles\u27 pioneering theory of andragogy which transformed education theory in the 1970s. The resulting principles of a self-directed, experiential, problem-centred approach to learning have been hugely influential and are still the basis of the learning practices we use today. Understanding these principles is the cornerstone of increasing motivation and enabling adult learners to achieve. The 9th edition of The Adult Learner has been revised to include: Updates to the book to reflect the very latest advancements in the field. Addition of two new chapters on: diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and on andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website: This website for The Adult Learner 9th Edition will provide basic instructor aids. For each chapter there will be a PowerPoint presentation, learning exercises, and added study questions. Revisions throughout to make it more readable and relevant to your practices. If you are a researcher, practitioner or student in education, an adult learning practitioner, training manager, or involved in human resource development, this is the definitive book in adult learning you should not be without.https://repository.lsu.edu/facultybooks/1443/thumbnail.jp

Supporting the Career Development of Older Employees: An HRD Point of View

In 1995 a quantitative exploratory survey into educational conditions promoting the careerdevelopment of older workers was carried out in a multinational chemical corporation.Educational conditions are defined as demands made on the corporate HRD-policy, HRD-activities and employees' willingness to learn, as well as stimulating factors that promote thecareer development of older workers. Although the corporation is willing to perform an age-aware personnel policy, results indicate that this still concentrates more on youngeremployees, that participants in the career development process are insufficiently stimulatingin their role and that the traditionally formal HRD-activities have little effect on the careerdevelopment of older workers. This paper describes the survey, highlights its major resultsand offers possible recommendations to improve the existing situation
