Abstract
<p>Andragogy is the art and science of assisting people in learning, as well as the study of adult education philosophy, procedures, and technology. Andragogy and economy have relation through adult education and higher education. Adult education and economic development strengthen one another. The objectives of this study are- to investigate situation of andragogy in particular fields of education of Bangladesh, to identify the ways about how approaches of andragogy in South-East Asia be redesigned in Bangladesh as a part of improvement or adaptation in those particular fields. The qualitative approach is followed in this study. Bangladesh along Vietnam and the Philippines are the countries identified as emerging economies. Situation of implementation of andragogical approach in particular educational areas of Bangladesh is not the way that is naturally expected from an emerging economy. Though andragogy has been successfully introduced and adapted in western especially European education system, as a country growing both economically and socially, Bangladesh just cannot blindly adopt the process because of the differences between economies of Bangladesh and European region. So, it will be rational to adapt and improvise the andragogical approaches followed by Bangladesh’s neighboring countries which are attaining financial success and have gone through similar economic phase that resembles to economy of Bangladesh. As education system of other South Asian countries is as fragmented as Bangladesh in the case of andragogy, South East Asian countries can be better inspiration.</p><p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0851/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
Highlights
Adult Education, as a subsection of other specializations in faculties of education, takes pride in its use of andragogy in the teaching and learning process
When it became generally recognized that the concepts and methods of pedagogy, which were intended for child and adolescent education, were not fully suited for adult education, the need for a distinct name to indicate the practice and study of assisting adults to learn became evident
The economy of Bangladesh is a developing market-based economy like stated countries which includes Southeast Asian nations like Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines. (Haque, 2011) This is the specific reason of choosing emulation of Southeast Asian form of andragogy in Bangladeshi education system as economic transition is same in both parts recent time
Summary
Adult Education, as a subsection of other specializations in faculties of education, takes pride in its use of andragogy in the teaching and learning process It is not the same as pedagogy, which is the art and science of educating children (Omoregie, 2021). Andragogy is the art and science of assisting people in learning, as well as the study of adult education philosophy, procedures, and technology to that purpose, according to the definition of some researchers. It is a neologism derived from the Greek terms andros (man) and agein (to lead) by similarity with pedagogy, and it implies to lead or teach adults (Krajnc, 1989). The term "theory" refers to a hypothesis or a set of ideas meant to explain something, one based on general principles unrelated to the subject of the explanation (Omoregie, 2021)
