Andragogy (andr-’man’)  Means “the art and science of helping adults learn”.  This concept was developed by M. Knowles and is described as an emerging technology that is based on 5 principles for the adult learner.

Priniciples for Andragogy  Self Concept  Experience  Readiness  Orientation  Motivation

Self-Concept  As a person matures, he or she moves from dependency to self directness.

Experience  Adults dram upon their experiences to aid their learning.

Readiness  The learning readiness of adults is closely related to the assumption of new social roles.

Orientation  As a person learns new knowledge, he or she wants to apply it immediately in problem solving.

Motivation  As a person matures, he or she receives their motivation to learn from internal factors.

Assumptions about Andragogy (1) Adults need to know why they need to learn something (2) Adults need to learn experientially, (3) Adults approach learning as problem-solving, and (4) Adults learn best when the topic is of immediate value.

Knowles (1984, Appendix D) provides an example of applying Andragogy principles to the design of personal computer training:  1. There is a need to explain why specific things are being taught (e.g., certain commands, functions, operations, etc.)

Andragogy principles to the design of personal computer training:  2. Instruction should be task- oriented instead of memorization -- learning activities should be in the context of common tasks to be performed.

Andragogy principles to the design of personal computer training:  3. Instruction should take into account the wide range of different backgrounds of learners; learning materials and activities should allow for different levels/types of previous experience with computers.

Andragogy principles to the design of personal computer training:  4. Since adults are self-directed, instruction should allow learners to discover things for themselves, providing guidance and help when mistakes are made.
