Abstract

Adult learning and phenomena of stress and trauma are not often connected within scientific entities or integrated into practical teaching. However, adult education theory and multidimensional model of coping - BASIC Ph - have a mutual subject: work with humans. During the process of learning and teaching adults gain insights and self-insights, which often lead to behavioral change and BASIC Ph insists exactly on the fact that humans can learn about coping strategies and therefore can support self-development. Based on comprehensive study on quality of communication with chronically ill children, their families, schools and medical staff, two dissertations and postgraduate pedagogy studies, with different research tasks, have applied the same theoretical concept and brought valuable insights on practical use of BASIC Ph in work with ill children. Thus this paper interprets the results of all three studies from the perspective of adult education and aims to demonstrate the utilization of BASIC Ph model in adult learning and teaching.
