An accessible, research-based primer on how adults learn, and how best to teach them
"This book is a must-have, comprehensive resource for adult educators seeking to master the theory and practice of helping adults learn in a volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous environment. Each chapter examines up-to-date theories and models along with examples, strategies, tips and tools for practical application to life and work. Snapshots of 'adult learning by the numbers' provide evidence for theories. Reflective practice activities personalize learning. The authors critically consider the culture, context, intelligent technologies, and constant change that influence learning opportunities and resources in a global landscape. Their chapters on learning design and facilitation-delivered both in person and online-provide valuable hands-on guidelines, case examples, and insight into emerging trends."
-VICTORIA J. MARSICK, PhD, Program Director and Professor, Adult Learning & Leadership, Department of Organization & Leadership, Teachers College, Columbia University
This globally focused Second Edition reflects the many societal, economic, environmental, and technological changes that have occurred in recent years. Each chapter includes activities, reflection prompts, case studies, and practical tips for teaching and learning. For adult learners, adult educators, and anyone interested in the science and scholarship of teaching learning, Adult Learning: Linking Theory and Practice, Second Edition is the most practically oriented text on the subject.
