Prior knowledge and learner development: Concepts and implications

Drawing on concepts from the Ambrose et al. (2010) readings for this week (Chapters 1 and 2) create a visual diagram, table or figure that explains three concepts or principles about prior knowledge, knowledge organization and learner development. Also include a total of two implications for adult educator practice that derive from this group of concepts/principles.

Embed your visual diagram in the discussion and say a little bit about why these concepts and educator practices matter to you.
