Product Description

Product Description

This text examines the role of psychology in informing adult education practice. It acknowledges the psychological dimension of adult education work, and explores this dimension in the context of the concerns of adult educators. The approach is to examine the seminal traditions of some key pyschological theories and to discuss the issues and problems in applying them to an understanding of adult learning and development. This volume is ideally suited for those who seek a critical understanding of psychological theory and research from the perspective of the adult educator.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent evaluative text, 1 Dec 2000
By CSlade (Nottingham, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is an excellent book for both undergraduates and postgraduates with a knowledge of psychological theory. It evaluates the contributions of the main approaches in psychology to adult education, and poses some interesting questions regarding assumptions made about adult education; for example, the benefits of group work. It is one of the few books to examine the contributions of psychodynamic theory in the classroom.It clearly defines the contributions of each perspective to both the learner and the teacher. I found this to be a thought provoking book that was hard to put down
