Abstract |
This paper presents a case study-based analysis of the paradigm shift from andragogy to heutagogy in adult learning, especially within higher education settings. Drawing on recent research and theoretical perspectives, this study explores how self-determined learning principles are applied across four institutional case studies. The cases highlight practical implementations, learner outcomes, and instructional design adaptations. This shift emphasizes learner autonomy, capability development, and the integration of digital tools. By comparing these case studies to traditional pedagogical and andragogical approaches, the paper offers evidence supporting the efficacy of heutagogical practices. The findings contribute to understanding how heutagogy can be effectively operationalized in diverse learning environments and suggest recommendations for institutional adoption. |
