Adult Learning Theories
[ send me this paper ]
A 13 page paper. Theorists have consistently commented on the need for experiential learning in adult education. Many also comment that adult learners are self-directed, capable of determining their own goals and taking responsibility for their own learning. Some theorists argue that this is not always the case. It may depend on why the adult is taking a class. This essay will discuss several learning theories. The essay does not make any specific conclusion other than to point out that most theorists say some of the same things about the adult learner. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

Allowing Segregation In College Dormitories
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Yale University's regulations demand that freshman and sophomore years are spent living in the college dormitories. Members of some minority groups on college campuses often insist on living together in separate dorms, taking their meals together, engaging in separate activities and just generally living apart from those who are not of their ethnic background. In light of today's
emphasis upon the multicultural experience, should the university allow such segregation? Indeed, there is no question that this should be allowed to progress is this direction, inasmuch as forcing people to integrate with one another in the past has not proven a successful venture. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
