    Adult learning is most effective when learners are actively engaged in the learning process. There are four stages of learning: 1. You don't know what you don't know and are unaware of gaps in knowledge. 2. You become aware of what you don't know and that this lack of knowledge may prevent goals from being achieved. 3. You understand what to do and can perform tasks when consciously thinking about steps. Practice and reinforcement help move to the next stage. 4. Unconscious competence is reached where knowledge is internalized and skills can be performed without conscious thought, like riding a bike.

    TOPIC

    HOW WE LEARN
    INTRODUCTION
    Much of our traditional learning experience
    leads us to a believe that we learn best by
    listening to experts. Fortunately there has been
    considerable research into adult learning and this
    provides much better understandings of the factors
    influencing adult learning.
    Training that actively engages an adult in the
    learning process achieves significantly greater results
    in learner self-awareness, changed behavior, and the
    acquisition of new skills.
    Stages of Learning
    Or, How We Go From the Unknown To the
    Known
    STAGES OF LEARNING
    At Step 1:
    You dont know what you dont
    know.

    In other words you are not aware you have a
    learning need. Sometimes referred to as being in a
    state of blissful ignorance.
    STAGES OF LEARNING
    At Step 2:
    You know what you dont know.

    This is the stage where learning really begins.
    It is where we have become aware that we have a lack
    of knowledge or skill and that this is preventing (or
    may prevent) us from doing or achieving.
    STAGES OF LEARNING
    At Step 3:
    You know what to do and can do it
    when you think about it.

    At this stage learning is becoming easier.
    Often we feel we pretty much know how to do this.
    Frequently all we need at this stage is an opportunity
    to practice and some positive reinforcement.
    STAGES OF LEARNING
    At Step 4:
    You dont know what you know
    and do it without having to think
    about it.
    This is like riding a bike. You know what you
    need to know and can repeat
    the performance at will.
