LEARNING IN FARMING FAMILIES THROUGH THE FIELD SCHOOL STRATEGY

Abstract

The present study is carried out with the objective of analyzing the problem of adult learning. For this, the experience of a group of farmers who experienced the Kolb learning cycle under the direction of a group of teachers who through their work try to generate sustainable agricultural production in the area was taken. Participating subjects belong to a rural area of Alto Huallaga (Peru). Methodologically, a systematic analysis of the learning cycle proposal was carried out and then it was complemented with the semi-structured interview in order to deepen the documentary findings. The results detail the particularization of each of the stages of learning and assume issues that make the subject addressed complex.
