Knud Illeris

Transformative Learning and Identity

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In the current ever changing world the most pressing psychological challenge to all of us is to create and maintain a personal balance between mental stability and mental flexibility. In this book Knud Illeris, one of the leading thinkers on the way people learn, explores, updates and re-defines the concept and understanding of transformative learning while linking the concept of transformative learning to the concept of identity. He thoroughly discusses what transformative learning is or could be in a broader learning theoretical perspective, including various concepts of learning by change, as opposed to learning by addition, and ends up with a new, short and distinct definition.
