Learning structures include pragmatic skills and habitual practices that support effective learning. Adult learning is problem-centered lifelong learning (Ozuah, 2005). Learning skills are influenced by environment conditioning from childhood to young adult. Young adults may develop less than effective learning habits through conditioning from reinforced external expectations. Students with these conditioned behaviors may never learn to assess and revise learning habits. Learning to learn should include learning structures. The discussion of this white paper targets problems and solutions for improving student learning structures.
Learning family structure is a method of establishing a behavioral family process. The family is aware, understands the importance, and benefits for the learner’s engagement in the long term goal. The main benefit of the learning family structure is to improve family quality of life versus just the student’s focus. Developing a learning family practice is one of the best gifts a parent can provide for their children. Distance learning is a challenge for many adult learners. Providing guidelines for how to involve the family in the learning structured discipline empowers adults learners to demonstrate examples for their children and other adult family members.

Distance learning is a challenge for many adult learners. Providing guidelines for how to involve the family in the learning structured discipline empowers adults learners to demonstrate examples for their children and other adult family members. The practice influences faculty and student centered learning for adult learners to benefit life long learning habits.
