Professional development as transformative learning

Description:

Professional Development as Transformative Learning draws on recent scholarship in adult education to provide practical ideas for adult educators on how to stimulate and support their own development as educators and better understand the process of professional development as adult learning. Building on the work of Mezirow, Brookfield, and other contemporary theorists, Patricia Cranton creates a practical, personal approach to educator development - one that is self-directed, reflective, and transformative. Throughout the book, Cranton offers examples of her strategies in action, showing how adult educators in a variety of settings can use these techniques to improve their skills and practice.
