Project Title: The Adult Self-Directed Learner- Navigating Stressors
Goal: When experiencing stressors will identify cognitive distortions and understand how those thoughts affect well-being.
Objective: Upon completion of the domains, learners will:
- Identify tendencies or patterns of thinking
- Identify distortions
- Motivated to reframe their thoughts.
Rationales:
The main theoretical idea:
McClusky believed adults face continuous growth and transformation resulting in a steady effort to use the energy available to meet ordinary living responsibilities. Adults have no control over many issues in their lives; they must discover ways to prepare themselves to meet erratic emergencies or predicaments as they arise (Merriam & Baumgartner, 2020).
I will apply these ideas by creating a design for learners to identify their negative thinking patterns are imbedded in their stressors, identifying cognitive distortions, by reframing those thoughts, and to manage stressors related to life’s responsibilities.
Andragogy reflects the importance of intrinsic motivation. The learners benefit by increasing their ability to navigate every day stressors, which enhances their ability to embrace self-directed learning.
Design: Individual will identify cognitive distortions.
- Domains: Troubleshooting, prioritization, and adaptation.
- Troubleshooting: Educating learner on 10 common thinking distortions.
- Prioritization: Change how the learner thinks and feels.
- Adaptation: Acquire new skills in reframing thoughts.
Tools that will be used:
- Checklist for learner to assess their cognitive distortions. chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://arfamiliesfirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Cognitive-Distortions.pdf
- Workbook introducing the learner to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
