Adult Learning Maps and the Teaching Process.
Rogers, Alan
Studies in the Education of Adults, v25 n2 p199-220 Oct 1993
The learning process may be described as personal maps of reality--the way in which individuals construct knowledge and how new experiences change the maps. When new material is encountered, learners place it somewhere on their maps; the teacher's role is to relocate it closer to the learner. (SK)
