  1. Self-directed: Learning at one’s own pace in one’s own way
  2. Transformational: Learning can change your perspective on the world and vice-versa
  3. Experiential: Focuses on developing life experience or “hands-on” learning
  4. Mentorship: Learning from an outside mentor (established figure) in a field
  5. Orientation to (or of) learning:  Adults need to reframe their emotions and assumptions around the experience and value of learning
  6. Motivation:  Children are motivated by parents and laws requiring their education; adults often have internal motivation
  7. Readiness to learn:  As a child matures, they reach a certain threshold of learning readiness (such as reading or basic math facts), but adults have already been through this development and need to rely on past experience or life changes to develop a renewed readiness

Right around the time Knowles penned the fifth pillar of his adult learning theory, he also introduced four pillars that we can apply to adult learning:

  • Adults want to participate in both the planning and evaluation attached to their instruction.
  • Experiences, both good and bad, serve as the backdrop for all learning activities.
  • Adults first gravitate towards learning things that are directly relevant to their job or personal life.
  • Adult learning centers on problems, not subjects.
