Thesis Abstract

Peer learning is a powerful educational approach that fosters collaboration, active engagement, and knowledge sharing among learners. This research project aims to explore the role of adult education in promoting peer learning and its impact on adult learners' educational experiences and outcomes.

The research will begin with a comprehensive literature review to examine the theoretical foundations and best practices of peer learning in adult education. It will analyze existing adult education programs and initiatives that incorporate peer learning to identify key design principles, pedagogical approaches, and facilitation strategies.

The research methodology will involve a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative data will be collected through surveys and assessments to measure the impact of peer learning on participants' learning outcomes, satisfaction, and engagement. Qualitative data will be gathered through interviews and focus groups to gain insights into the experiences and perspectives of adult learners regarding the effectiveness and benefits of peer learning.

The findings of this research will contribute to the existing knowledge on the role of adult education in promoting peer learning. It will provide valuable insights for educators, instructional designers, and program developers in designing and implementing effective peer learning experiences that meet the unique needs and preferences of adult learners. Ultimately, this research aims to enhance the understanding and utilization of peer learning in adult education, fostering collaborative learning environments and improving learning outcomes for adult learners.
