Book excerpt: The study focused on the teacher as an adult learner rather than an instructor. A sample of three hundred and three elementary school teachers completed a two-part Likert survey questionnaire. The instrument was developed by the researcher in an attempt to operationalize Mezirow's Theory of Perspective Transformation. The four sub-scales collected information about teachers as they perceived themselves as adult learners and the way they conceptualize critical SelfReflection, Meaning perspectives and New Insights (Mezirow, 1978, 1981, 1989, 1990) within a framework of Mezirow's concept of Transformative Learning. Survey research methodology was used. Frequency distributions, means, and standard deviation were calculated. Reliability analysis and Pearson 'r' correlations established the internal consistency of items It Cross tabulations to describe differences in responses across demographic valuables were computed. The survey results indicated that teachers perceived themselves as self-directed learners. The findings support the need for a better understanding of the teacher as an adult learner so that teacher inservice programs and teacher supervision and evaluation can provide a viable learning alternative to the existing models used in practice.
Download or read book Teaching and Supporting Adult Learners written by Jackie Scruton and published by Critical Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible and up to date text on teaching and supporting adult learners, aimed at both student teachers and experienced practitioners. It explores teaching adult learners within a traditional further education (FE) context but also working with those adult learners on Higher Education (HE) courses taught within FE. Adult learners have a distinct set of needs and challenges which can include issues of self confidence, fear of technology, time management and financial constraints, and which may not always be fully recognised by educational practitioners or institutions. Teachers and student stories are used throughout this book to analyse learner needs and motivations, highlight possible barriers to learning and explore strategies for support. This publication enables those teaching adult learners to gain an understanding of the difficulties that students may experience while developing their own professional practice in order to create effective, focused and inclusive teaching strategies for this group.
Download or read book Adult Learning Principles and Teacher Professional Development written by Marjorie Ringler and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluated professional development and determined whether teachers (n=24) perceived a learner-centered or a teacher-centered approach for learning. The evaluation focused on adult learning principles: learner-centered activities, personalizing instructions, relating teaching to student experience, assessing participant needs, climate-building, student participation in the learning process, and flexibility for personal development by students. This study also examined the relationship between the years of teaching, the level of education, and participants' perceptions of adult learning principles. Data analyzed consisted of written evaluations, implementation plans, and Principles of Adult Learning Scale (PALS) survey. Results indicated that participants perceived instruction to be more learner-centered than expected, although overall perception was teacher- centered. The principle: relating to participants' experiences was perceived to be consistently present. There was a strong indication that participants with ten or more years of teaching perceived instruction more learner-centered than the less experienced participants.
