Overcoming Resistance to Self-Direction in Adult Learning (New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education)

"One of the most important influences in recent years on successful practice in adult and continuing education is the idea of self-direction. The purpose of this volume of New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education is to describe various instances in which resistance to self-direction has been overcome and in which individuals have been helped to accept increasing responsibility for their own learning. It is also intended to help readers understand some of the sources of resistance and become better able to identify strategies that enable educators and trainers of adults to overcome such resistance."--BOOK JACKET.
