Andragogy

Andragogy is the art and science of adult learning. It emphasizes that adults learn differently than children, often preferring to draw on their life experiences, engage in problem-solving, and take responsibility for their learning. Adults are motivated by internal factors, such as personal growth or career advancement, rather than external rewards. In educational settings, this approach encourages collaboration, practical application of knowledge, and flexible learning environments that respect adults' time and commitments, fostering a more effective and meaningful learning experience.
