Facilitating education for adult students is an important focus of Andragogy International Universe (AIU High School). Many of our students are looking to finish High School and earn their diploma. Our outstanding alumni have been able to achieve the education that life may have interrupted. This is why our educational philosophy leans towards andragogy. This methodology fits well with the online or distance learning program offered by AIU High School. Andragogy is the antonym of pedagogy. In pedagogy, the concern is with transmitting the content, while in andragogy, the concern is with facilitating the acquisition of the content. Andragogy is a theory developed by Knowles (1913-97) which differentiates the needs of adult learners from those of juveniles and uses the term andragogy to describe the specific methods which should be employed in the education of adults. The Online High School programs offered at Andragogy International Universe (AIU High School) make the educational process leading to a high school diploma attainable by students without the need to physically attend class

Key Aspects of Andragogy:
The
adult learner moves towards independence and is self-directing.
The teacher encourages and nurtures this movement.
The
learner's experience is a rich resource for learning. Hence,
teaching methods include discussion, problem-solving etc.
People
learn what they need to know, so that learning programs are
organized around life application.
Learning
should be based centered around experiences, since people best retain knowlege in this way.
Andragogy requires that adult learners be involved in the identification
of their learning needs and the planning of how those needs
are satisfied. Learning should be an active rather than a passive
process. Adult learning is most effective when concerned with
solving problems that have relevance to the learner's everyday
experience.
