Adult Learning Principles

Malcolm Knowles(1913 – 1997)

Name one adult learning principle.

• Adults need to be involved in the planning and evaluation of their learning.

• Experience (mistakes included) provides the basis for learning activities.

• Adults want to learn subjects that have immediate relevance to their work or personal lives.

• Adult learning is problem-centered notcontent-oriented.
