components that Knowles claims make for successful adult education and how they differ from the instruction of children:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Need to Know<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pedagogy: Learners only need to know what it takes to pass the class, not to apply it to their lives.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Andragogy: Learners need to know WHY they need to know the information.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Self-Concept<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pedagogy: The learner is dependent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Andragogy: The learner is a self-directed human who learns more when they have some control over their learning and don\u2019t just sit back and wait to be taught.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Role of Experience<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pedagogy: The learner\u2019s experience doesn\u2019t matter, only the teacher\u2019s or textbook writer\u2019s.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Andragogy: Adults have so much more experience in life that adults are much more varied than students and therefore learn more from experiential (hands-on, active) learning techniques.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Readiness to Learn<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pedagogy: Learners will be ready to learn if they want to pass the class.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Andragogy: Adults need just-in-time learning so that they are learning things they can use right away.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Orientation to Learning<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pedagogy: Learners see their role as acquiring subject matter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Andragogy: Adults see the purpose of learning as acquiring information about a task or problem-at-hand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Motivation to Learn<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pedagogy: Learners\u2019 motivation is purely extrinsic \u2013 grades and approval are all that matter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Andragogy: While adults do have some extrinsic motivation regarding promotions and the like, they also have intrinsic motivation to simply \u201cbe better\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are the components that Knowles claims make for successful adult
