      Newspaper As An Andragogical-ToolWhat is the efficacy of the newspaper as a tool for learning for the young adult in Mumbai? Findings of a survey of 326 respondents (ages 18-21) show that interaction with parents and friends -- albeit inadvertently -- thwarts the very thinking process/s that realizes learning. Young adults fear ridicule and loneliness. I conclude that the newspaper needs to re-vision information for it to become an andragogical tool.
