Ideas on Learning and Knowledge  Merriam was very conscious of the fact that our ideas on learning and knowledge are culturally bound.  This issue is addressed in her book Non-Western Perspectives on Learning and Knowing (2007)  Certain questions are raised such as: - What is legitimate knowledge? - Who creates knowledge about others? - How is knowledge transmitted?

What is the Role and Responsibility of Adult Education? There are five over-arching ideas behind the roles and responsibilities attributed to AE: 1. Create space and listen to voices 2. Adopt a critical stance 3. Attend to policy 4. Develop partnerships 5. Foster collective learning and action

1. Create Space and Listen to Voices  The system can be treated as more important than the very people it was created to help.  At times, it can be helpful to be very direct.  Hmong refugees

2. Adopt a Critical Stance  “Change for a better society will not occur until the status quo is scrutinized and challenged.”  Adult educators must question and be willing to view problems in a multi-faceted manner.  etailpage&v=eEYIhulK8S0 etailpage&v=eEYIhulK8S0  etailpage&v=SnAyr0kWRGE etailpage&v=SnAyr0kWRGE

3. Attend to Policy  Public policy is of incredible importance to society.  Understanding public policy will better enable one to relate to and work under the regulations of society.  It is important for educators to become involved with policy formation.

4. Develop Partnerships  AE will reach its fullest potential when partnered with other people, groups, and organizations.  This partnership should range from governmentally funded organizations to local grass-roots agencies.  Pooling of information

5. Foster Collective Learning and Action  Once a community is established, it is very difficult to stimulate further collective learning and action.  Educators must work hard to help the community become vulnerable again, enabling creativity and imagination to flourish.  etailpage&v=uWovoIexb2o etailpage&v=uWovoIexb2o
