Self-concept
As a person matures his/her self concept moves from one of being a dependent personality toward one of being a self-directed human being.
Adult Learner Experience
As a person matures he/she accumulates a growing reservoir of experience that becomes an increasing resource for learning.
Readiness to Learn
As a person matures his/her readiness to learn becomes oriented increasingly to the developmental tasks of his/her social roles.
Orientation to Learning

-
Why?
Consider why this course is important, why the participants need to learn the material and what the need is.
-
What?
Describe the content of the course; name the subject matter: what knowledge, skills, and attitudes will be taught?

Learner-Centered

How do learners know they know?
What was proposed to be taught must be taught; what was meant to be learned must be learned;
the skills intended to be gained must be manifest in all the learners; the attitudes taught must be
manifest; the knowledge conveyed must be visible in learners' language and reasoning.
Learning with Ideas, Feelings, and Actions
Equality?
conceptualize it, get a chance to feel it, and do something with it.
