Lindeman believes education is more than skills development, education is what gives meaning to life not just for the sake of knowledge. Lindeman adds that education continues where vocational training stops. Additionally, he points out that adult education is link to situations rather than subjects. Adults will learn when there is a problem to solve or an obstacle to negotiate. The focus of adult education is the learner’s experience. Learners develop by expanding on their experience. They gain experience by doing things, and reflecting upon the processes not through the rote memorization of subjects taught in silos. The curriculum must adjust to the student rather than the student adjust to the curriculum.
