An Excellent Book for Teachers of Adult Education,
By A Customer
This review is from: Adult Learning Methods: A Guide for Effective Instruction (Hardcover)
Michael Galbraith has done an outstanding job of compiling written work by several noted authors and making it available in one book. Rita Kolody focuses on Guidelines for Selecting Methods and Techniques. Gary Conti has written an excellent chapter on Identifying Your Teaching Style. Stephen Brookfield's focus in on Discussion. Shirley Farrah spotlights the Lecture. Internship is covered by Susan B. Fremont and Mentorship is covered by Laurnet A. Parks Daloz. Many other authors have contributed equally outstanding chapters. A major theme of this book is understanding the adult learner. Psychological characteristics are explored as well as cognitive and personality characteristics of the adult learner. The chapters are well written, easily understood, and references are documented. Upon reading this book, the teacher can utilize the knowledge from each contributing author and make an informed selection of which method and technique may have the greatest chance of professional satisfaction for success for the learners. The information in this book is thought-provoking and stimulating for any teacher who desires to improve his/her own teaching-learning transaction.
