Adult Learning- Physical Skills

WCLI-O 2015 Adult Learning- Physical Skills

The following is the course description for the Adult Learning – Physical Skills Course:

Bloom’s Taxonomy is not just for elementary school teachers. The three domains of the taxonomy apply to adult education as well. In this manual, we will pay attention to the psychomotor domain. This is the domain of action and physicality. It is important to remember that psychomotor work together with the other domains when implementing it.
