Understanding adult learning theories | Education homework help

As an instructional coach, it is important to understand various adult learning theories in order to implement useful learning strategies for positive instruction. Pedagogical instructional strategies are not always as effective in instructional coaching as andragogical strategies. Implementing teaching strategies appropriate for the adult learner offers multiple opportunities to meet the varied needs of the instructional staff and increases the effectiveness of the instructional coach.
For this assignment, create a visual (matrix, graphic organizer) for other instructional coaches that will guide their understanding of Malcolm Knowles’ principles of andragogy.

Your visual should include:

• How the principles apply to instructional coaching.
• Teaching strategies that would be appropriate for coaching the adult learner.
• Identification of the differences between andragogy and pedagogy and the significance each has on adult education.
• Two andragogical strategies to engage adult learners during instructional coaching. 

Briefly summarize your findings in 500-750 words. Your summary should succinctly explain Malcolm Knowles’ principles of andragogy and how they apply to continued adult education.

Support your findings with 3-5 scholarly resources.
