KEY HOLISTIC LEARNING JOURNEYS FOR PEOPLE

 

SUMMARY

Three learning journey models, which are about personal development learning, individual capacity building, collective and community capacity building (Community Learning).

PROMPTS FOR REFLECTION AND DISCUSSION

  • Do people learn best when the learning is relevant, purposeful and useful to them and when they can see a direct application or benefit for them?
  • For many people, is solving problems and making progress in their own lives their main motivation for learning?
  • Might non-confident people need to change their own perception of themselves as learners in order to be able to participate successfully in learning?
  • Why should we recognise learning as crucial in addressing the needs of individuals and changing communities?
  • What might an adult learning curriculum look like, which is for individual capacity building?
