Abstract

The purpose of this Work is to highlight how the innovative Adult Education Method (Fre-Me-Broo-Kok.) (Ramoutsaki, 2022) can be used, in combination with a specific case study, for the transformation of their dysfunctional assumptions. The Method, which combines and enriches the Greek version of the corresponding "Transformative Learning through aesthetic experience" (Kokkos, 2017) with elements of the techniques of P.Freire, J.Mezirow and St.Brookfield, is used in an interdisciplinary literary workshop. In particular, the work of Leo Tolstoy, The Grandfather and the Grandson, is combined with other forms of Art and with active techniques of cooperative, exploratory and discovery Learning. From the above, it can be concluded that the use of relevant Examples as case studies in Adult Education can contribute to the individual and professional development of adult learners, improving their general attitude towards fellow human beings.
