Graduate student learning from the andragogical perspective

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze graduate student learning from the andragogical perspective. Research was of the descriptive type, located in a positivist epistemic position, with a non-experimental design. Using a questionnaire as instrument, the survey technique was applied to a sample of graduate students at the Experimental University Rafael María Baralt (UNERMB). The data collecting instrument was validated and tested for reliability using the student’s t and the Cronbach formula, respectively, before application. Results indicated that the students’ educational practice is not facilitated
adequately from the andragogical perspective, in terms of andragogical principles and learning strategies.
