Transformative Learning (4.1)

Transformative learning most often follows a disorienting dilemma (Mezirow, 2000)

Fundamental shift occurs between transformative learning and informative learning (Kegan, 2009)

Critical reflection and dialogue on one’s assumptions and beliefs can lead to a new theory of practice (Cranton, 2016)

Adult learning theory to the point of being a similar risk of oversimplification and misapplication (Newman, 2012; Taylor & Laros, 2014)

Sheng and colleagues (2021) find

People and school culture affect O L

O L characteristics and staff knowledge are related to school performance

Individual learning must be distributed to affect O L

Critical Perspectives on Adult Learning (4.1)

Hegemony operates to preserve inequities linked to structures of privilege and oppression based on categories like race, ethnicity, gender, class, and age. Social justice is viewed as a core value

Postmodern Theory resists universal truth, emphasizing a multifaceted approach to truth based upon experience and the context of the learner

What role does Power play in both frameworks?
