Early in this process European adult educators felt the need for a label for this new theoretical model that would enable them to talk about it in parallel with pedagogy. They coined the label “andragogy,” which is based on the Greek word aner (with the stem andr-), meaning “man, not boy” or adult. I first learned of the new label from a Yugoslavian adult educator in the mid-sixties and used it in an article in Adult Leadership in 1968. Since that time it has appeared with increasing frequency in the literature around the world, and presumably will be listed in the standard dictionaries before long.
