Summary

"This book focuses on seeking to locate the essence of a central phenomenon in the area of adult education - adult experiential learning. As a somewhat new educational orthodoxy, adult experiential learning has tended to attract scholars and practitioners in the field of adult education, especially educators, across a broad diversity of contexts." "This study attempts to address the prevailing conceptual confusion surrounding adult experiential learning and, at the same time, develop an alternative conceptualization of it on the basis of the theories put forward by Malcolm Knowles, David Kolb, Jack Mezirow, Reginald Revans and Donald Schon."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
