5. If We Want Adults, Let’s Teach Them as Adults

6. Adult Learning Theory Core Learning Concepts Most of us learned to teach and to learn from pedagogical models, not andragogical ones Much adult learning occurs in contexts that are active, relevant, and social. Knowles, M. (1990) The Adult Learner: A Neglected Species Houston, Gulf Publishing Company. PedagogyAndragogy Dependent on Authority Independent, equal Experience is secondary Experience is resource Motivated by others/ teachers Motivated by problems Subject-centered (What should I know?) Performance- centered (what do I do?) Mass learningDistributed practice/ Spaced learning

7. At Times the Challenge Independent and Equal If we could only hand down definitive knowledge… However, that concept is antithetical to our understanding of the process of education in a democratic society and…state of knowledge.

8. We Teach in a Zone `Zone of Proximal Development’ Our job is to support students as they move from novice to expert. Vygotsky, L.S. (1978) Mind in Society: The Development of Higher Psychological Process, edited by M. Cole, V. John-Steiner, S. Scribner & E.

9. Experience as Resource Cannot learn something new unless we connect it to something we know. More scholarly wording: acquisition of new knowledge requires the activation of prior knowledge.

10. What Do I Do: Performance Centered, Problems to Solve Intrinsic motivation Personal goals Share yours ( equal and independent)

11. Do versus BE Active versus Passive Advice often heard by students: “Just sit and listen.” 5-10% retention rate for lectures 15 minute-chunks PowerPoint—we do all the work, all the struggle Davies, Philip. Approaches to evidence-based teaching. 2000, Vol. 22, No. 1, Pages 14-21 (doi:10.1080/01421590078751

12. Strategies to Ensure Memory Over 100 years of research: #1 Practice questions Distributed practice 1.opportunities to review many times 2.methods for creating review materials Dunlosky, J., Rawson, K. A., Marsh, E. J., Nathan, M. J., & Willingham, D. T. (2013). Improving students' learning with effective learning techniques: Promising directions from cognitive and educational psychology. Psychological Science in the Public Interest, 14, 4-58. DOI: 10.1177/1529100612453266

13. Affect Descartes was wrong Cannot have one without the other Affect is central and essential Positive encouragement

14. If you remember nothing else! We are the models, the mentors for teaching and learning and interacting with colleagues and patients. Our students will do as we do. “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Maya AngelouMaya Angelou ―
