Holistic Learning Theory and Implications for Human Resource Development

Baiyin Yang

University of Minnesota

The problem and the solution. The adult learning literature provides a number of concepts and theories of adult learning. No unifying theory of learning has emerged because of the complexity and diversity of the adult learning process. A recently developed holistic theory provides an integrative framework to examine some of the contemporary adult learning theories. Implications for human resource development theory, research, and practice are discussed.

Key Words: adult learning • holistic learning theory • theory building
