Culturally conditioned language supplies the categories by which we order experience, and influences the processes by which we think. Social interaction reinforces accepted perceptual frames. Learning progresses most efficiently when account is taken of individual and cultural perspectives and processes. Even when the training goal is consistent, the route to that goal need not be. Training strategies should incorporate and build upon the learner's experience.
Adult learners bring a wealth of experience on which they can build.
As trainees acquire relevant experience, they should be permitted to build on that experience. Trainer roles and strategies should be responsive to trainee competence. Theory should be validated by Scripture and the created order. Theory intends to describe reality-it makes truth claims. Information should be appropriated and obeyed.
