Rosemary Caffarella believes her role as an educator is to assist learners to critically examine and reflect on how they define knowledge, learning and education. How educators view these concepts, coupled with their own values and the context in which they find themselves have a direct effect on how they view other people, construct learning and teaching situations, and act as instructors, program planners, and leaders. Completing this process requires learners and educators to be intrigued by what is unknown to them, open to what they have never before considered as real knowledge and caring for people and the environment in which they live.
