Abstract: The purpose of this study was to analyze 32 dissertations that used the Modified Instructional Perspective Inventory (MIPI) by John Henschke (1989) for tendencies and new meanings. Three tendencies resulted: (a) the MIPI tends to improve any learning environment, (b) the MIPI tends to be an accelerant for change toward improving any learning environment, and (c) Henschke tends to model what he is teaching. Three new meanings resulted: (a) the MIPI is a checklist of Knowles's andragogy essential factors for improving any adult learning environment, (b) the MIPI is predictive, and (c) congruency between words and actions is essential among adult educators. A new trajectory for adult learning is using the MIPI to improve learning in any global environment. [For the full proceedings, see ED673719.]
