Abstract
The article explores key theories such as Piaget's Cognitive Development, Vygotsky's Sociocultural Theory, Bruner's Constructivist Theory, Information Processing Theory, Social Cognitive Theory, Schema Theory, Experiential Learning Theory and Connectivism. Each theory's core concepts are analysed in the context of senior citizen teachers, highlighting their unique contributions to knowledge acquisition. The value of integrating multiple theories is discussed aiming to develop comprehensive framework. This integration explores the diverse learning needs of senior citizen teachers emphasizing social and cultural contexts, cognitive development stages, active learning strategies and technology integration. Through holistic approach, senior citizen teachers can enhance their teaching practices, boost student engagement and promote lifelong learning. Practical strategies for incorporating these theories include collaborative learning activities, experiential projects, reflective practices and digital resource utilization. Ultimately, the article advocates for a broad understanding of knowledge acquisition theories and their application in senior citizen education. By embracing this approach, senior citizen teachers can create enriching learning environments fostering personal and professional growth.
