Principles:
·        Significant learning takes place when the subject matter is relevant to the personal interests of the student “Why do I have to learn this?”
·        Learning which is threatening to the self (e.g., new attitudes or perspectives) are more easily assimilated when external threats are at a minimum. Learning in the classroom is almost always better than learning on the job.
·        Learning proceeds faster when the threat to the self is low
·        Self-initiated learning is the most lasting and pervasive. Where does this put re-training as part of social security requirements? Community college is a good place to teach.
