Abstract

This practical and fascinating book provides teaching strategies consistent with the issues related to adult learning. It nudges the reader to see more than "facts" which must be "transferred" to learners. Written for trainers in the early childhood field, the "harvest" metaphors used throughout this work might make adult education seem alive for colleagues in agriculture-related fields. Cross-discipline discussion on the ways of teaching and learning included in this book might help Extension explore new ways of conducting adult education.
