Transformative Learning and Transition Theory: Toward Developing the Ability To Facilitate Insight.
Robertson, Douglas L.
Journal on Excellence in College Teaching, v8 n1 p105-25 1997
Few college teachers understand the process learners go through during periods of insight, large or small. Many treat this transition from one paradigm of knowledge to another as purely cognitive when, in fact, it is also highly emotional. A model of the transition is presented and a reflective guide is offered to help teachers facilitate this process in learners. (MSE)
