Transformative Dimensions of Adult Learning

by Jack Mezirow

Book Overview

All adult educators, whether they be trainers, counsellors, social workers, psychologists, or others, base their practice on a conception of how adults learn. Transformative Dimensions of Adult Learning describes the dynamics of how adults learn and how their perceptions are transformed by learning as a framework for formulating educational theory and practice. Based on this comprehensive approach, called transformation theory, Jack Mezirow presents an in-depth analysis of the ways in which adults learn, how they make meaning of the learning experience and how their lives can be transformed by it.
