Andragogy vs Pedagogy: Two Different Approaches To Learning
Andragogy vs Pedagogy - Andragogy and Pedagogy are a practice of learning. Both are used in the teaching-learning process. Before 1950, learning methods were centered only around the way children operated. After all, traditional schooling was pretty much how and where education took place. Finally, adult educator and researcher Malcolm Knowles in 1950 adopted the term “andragogy” to refer to adult learning. According to him, while children required more extrinsic motivation and relied on instructor-led methods, Knowles noticed that adults were self-directed and relied heavily on their past experiences when they approached learning opportunities.
