- W1542455330 abstract "Laurent A. Parks Dafoz is a faculty member and Acting Director at the Whidbey Institute in Clinton,Washington. The Whidbey Institute cultivates creative leadership for Earth, Spirit and the Human Future. Shauna Satin is currently a student at University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan. As a student at Schoolcraft Community College, Sho was involved in student activities including Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) and the Schoolcraft Scholars Program. She provides the experiential point of view for the discussion of student expectations in college. Laurent A. Parks Daloz, Ed.D. Berg: What are some of the expectations instructors should know about that adult learners have when entering a community college classroom? Daloz: I think in some senses there are as many expectations in a classroom as there are students. Community college students come with a wide range of expectations from the usual, very practical expectations that learning will be practical and immediately relevant and will help them get a better job, to expectations that they will simply learn what the faculty member has to teach them and they will do what they're told and learn from the authority and follow instructions. There are expectations from other students who figure if the professor doesn't say things that make sense to them, they won't pay any attention and will speak their own personal truth and do their learning on their own. There's a wide range of expectations that adults have when they come into a classroom, and I think the trick is identifying those expectations and deciding which to satisfy and which to frustrate. Berg: So, next semester I go into my classroom and I'm figuring out some of these expectations. Which ones should I try to satisfy and which ones should I try to frustrate? That's a good question! And again, that depends on the mix of the particular students' learning needs as well as the particular type of class and the instructor's preferences. Let me give you an example. Many community college students, particularly younger students, will enter class with the expectation that the instructor has the answers and that their job as learners is to absorb the truths from the instructor's mouth. That's an expectation that instructors may want to frustrate . . . gently. They may feel that the students' job is to take authority into themselves and expect less from external authority. The instructor may really want to encourage the students to internalize authority as a part of their own Berg: It seems that some of that is more common in my younger students than in the adult learners. Daloz: Yes, good. I agree with you about that-it usually is the case that younger students tend to be more authoritarian than older ones. Berg: Why is that? Daloz: In part, because the younger ones are fresher out of high school and high schools teach that you have to be taught in order to learn. That is, conventional high schools tend to be more authoritarian in their approach. However, it also is because we're dealing with a developmental difference here. Part of growing up intellectually involves moving away from easy rights and wrongs, goods and bads, dualistic kinds of thinking, to more complex forms of thought. So, adult students have had more years in which to do that kind of learning than 18-year-olds have. Berg: One of the things that I notice in working with adult students is that there are a lot of conflicts with work and family. What do we need to do to help accommodate that and also how can we teach students to make the appropriate decisions or help them balance work, family and college? Daloz: I think first the faculty must recognize that students, particularly the older students, are living very complex lives. If they miss a class or haven't been able to do an assignment or are finding the reading overwhelming, it's not simply because they are lazy or there's something wrong with their character. …" @default.
