What is Andragogy?


 
 

As an educator, many professionals are familiar with the term pedagogy and wonder about the term andragogy.  Pedagogical environments tend to have a teacher who lectures to the students and in turn the students must complete various assignments independently.  Andragogical environments occur when the teacher assumes the role of a co-facilitator and creates an interactive environment for the students.  As the blog emerges, more definitions and in-depth reflections will be made.  Above I have created a word cloud pertaining to the andragogical principles I have studied these past few weeks.  Please feel free to send your comments and thoughts as well as additional words for a revised word cloud in the next few months.  


Have a great day!
