At IBAS, We Apply the Andragogy Principle
- Self-Concept: As a person matures, his self-concept moves from one of being a dependent personality toward one of being a self-directed human being.
- Experience: As a person matures he accumulates a growing reservoir of experience that becomes an increasing resource for learning.
- Readiness to Learn: As a person matures his readiness to learn becomes oriented increasingly to the developmental tasks of his social roles.
- Orientation to Learning: As a person matures his time perspective changes from one of postponed application of knowledge to immediacy of application, and accordingly, his orientation toward learning shifts from one of subject-centeredness to one of problem-centredness.
- Motivation to Learn: As a person matures the motivation to learn is internal.
