Exploratory research as andragogic continuing education.
The continuing education aspect of an exploratory research project was evaluated in terms of Knowles's learning assumptions and teaching design factors. Although most of the project's assumptions were congruent with Knowles's andragogic assumptions, the design factors were found to be more pedagogic. Using more andragogic design factors in the future would strengthen this continuing education approach.
