DESCRIPTION
Our current association adult education is a victim to an outdated teacher- and expert-centered model. It has its roots in puritan beliefs that wisdom is evil and the less we know, the more innocent we are. To succeed we must move out of the didactic traditional training box. We must refocus on people, how they learn best and their needs. We need to transition from expert-centered models to participant-centered models. This requires a fundamental shift in our current education programming and an unlearning of pedagogical models as applied to adult education. In the end, telling doesn't equal learning. Nor does covering content mean content is learned. Thinking, doing and participating reign. The four essential components of instructional interactivity come from Michael Allen's research and writings.

Way we were taught in school.
Education model built upon industrial
revolution model.
16th & 17th Century Puritan Beliefs
Knowledge & wisdom evil.
Adults were to direct, limit & control a
child‘s learning.
If children didn’t know, then we could
keep them innocent.
Root of pedagogy – art & science of
how to teach children.

Learning is not a conduit.
Learning is not a conduit.
Experts have an idea. They share it with the
audience & then audience has it.
Implicit in process is that
learning is passive.
If knowledge can be handed to us,
then all we need to do is receive it.
Learning is more like construction.
Learning is more like construction.
We have to actively construct our own
meaning of it.
Info has to be worked with, questioned,
tested, practiced, applied.
raw materials of info are transformed and tested
