learner?
a. One who has been out of school for many years
b. One who has children and grandchildren
c. One who knows the routine of education
d. One who is in his or her early 20s
ANS: D

or another program of study. They are usually in their late teens or early 20s. The learner who has been
out of school for many years and the learner who has children and grandchildren would be identified as
a returning adult learner. The learner who knows the routine of education does not provide sufficient
information for classification.

d. attending credit classes at the mall.
ANS: A
Informal learning experiences are those that take place outside a formal educational setting. A person

education course, academic program, and credited classes all take place in a formal educational setting.

nursing program.

7. When a class of nursing students discusses their concerns about their program, the concern
shared by most learners is generally the fear of

b. economic problems.

d. ridicule.
ANS: C

learner has experienced in other educational settings. Few individuals are afraid of succeeding.
Uncertainty about economic issues is common among students but is not as universal as fear of failure.
Fear of ridicule is rarely a concern; if present, it is usually superseded by fear of failure.
