CHARACTERISTICS OF ADULT LEARNERS
AND IMPLICATIONS FOR TEACHING TECHNICAL INFORMATION
S. Joseph Levine, Ph.D.
Probably the single most important concern for the teacher of technical information to
adult learners is a thorough understanding of the learner. Through such an understanding
it is possible to direct your teaching to the specific needs and interest of the adult.
Characteristic #1
The adult learner is primarilyindependent/self-directed in what he/she learns.
Implications for Teaching:
Try not to treat the adult like a child. Introduce yourself to the group and have
them introduce themselves. Use name tags and try to call the adults by name. Make sure
you allow ample time for discussion. Don’t assume that you’re the only one with the
answer – try having the adults in the group also provide answers to each other. Handouts
and materials that you provide during your teaching can help the adults learn on their
own after your session is over. When the adult is learning on his own he can use the
speed or rate of learning that best fits his own learning style. Diffreent learners learn at
different rates.
