APPROACHES TO LEARNING FOR ADULT STUDENTS

Course overview

In this course, we explore a number of established learning theories that work well in massage classrooms. In the ABMP textbook Teaching Massage: Fundamental Principles in Adult Education for Massage Program Instructors, Chapter 3 (How People Learn: Theories and Approaches) explores a number of established learning theories that provide insights into ways that people learn and practical activities that enhance learning environments. This course, presented by ABMP Director of Education Anne Williams, explores social cognition, whole-brain thinking, and essential capacity building to support instructors as they search for new ways to inspire and engage adult learners.
