Malcolm Knowles' Principles of Andragogy
- need to know

- experiences
- readiness to learn
- orientation to learning
- motivation
(Franco, 2019)
Application to Instructional Coaching
- collaborates with others to solve problems
- effective communication skills
- providing instructional feedback
- planning and goal setting
- building self-efficacy
- progress monitoring
- developing trusting relationship
(Gross Cheliotes & Reilly, 2018; Ceballos & Bixler, 2024)
Teaching strategies appropriate for coaching adult learners
- committed listening
- powerful speaking and questioning
- reflective feedback
(Gross Cheliotes & Reilly, 2018)
The differences between andragogy and pedagogy
- Adult learners want control over their learning and they are self-directed; children are not self-directed because they still depend on their teachers.
- Adults learners have more experience than children and use it as a resource in the learning process; children have very little life experience.
- Adult learners want to learn information that is useful and relevant to them (learner-centered); children's learning is subject-centered and rely on teachers to provide them the information.
- Adult's readiness to learn stems from knowing that it will have a definite effect on their social roles and responsibilities; children are usually told what to learn and when.
- Adult learners are instrinsically-motivated; children are extrinsically-motivated.
(Pappas, 2015)
Andragogical strategies to engage adult learners
- give immediate feedback so that adult learners can learn from their mistakes
- create learning environments that offer choices in learning and skill development
