This engaging and accessible book offers adult educators a set of instructional strategies that actively foster adult development while helping adult learners become aware of how learning affects their growth. Developing Adult Learners gives adult educators the framework they need to use their skills to engage learners not only in the task at hand, but in the conscious exploration of how the learning process enriches their ultimate potential. The authors reveal the connections between experience, learning, and development in the lives of adult learners and offer educators new insights into learners' processes of thinking and knowing. An indispensable guide for those who work with adults whose continuing development rests on their ability to learn from experience, Developing Adult Learners will enable educators to become not just instructors in a particular subject matter, but conscious human developers.
