Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Informal learning experiences are those that take place outside a formal educational setting. A person who cares for a disabled family member would gain knowledge and skill in providing personal care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The recycled adult learner has been out of school for several years and returns as a result of a life transition, such as loss of a job. This learner shares some of the characteristics of both traditional and returning adult learners. However, this adult learner might have technical school or college experience or an undergraduate or graduate degree in a discipline other than nursing. Discipline-change learner is not a recognized learner classification. The traditional adult learner comes to the nursing program directly from high school or another program of study. The reclaimed learner is not a recognized learner classification.
