Recognition of Prior Learning
“Adults are relevancy-oriented. They must see a reason for
learning something. Learning has to be applicable to their work or
other responsibilities to be of value to them. Therefore, instructors
must identify objectives for adult participants before the course begins. This means, also, that theories and concepts must be related to a setting familiar to
participants.”Stephen Lieb 1991
