"This creative and pioneering book adapts and extAnds the transformation theory of adult learning to the professional development of adult educators. Well written and easy to read, with many examples, this volume is highly recommended." --Jack Mezirow, emeritus professor of adult education, Teachers College, Columbia University This book 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 approach to educator development, offering strategies that are self-directed, reflective, and transformative.
