Book excerpt: Lifelong Education for Adults: An International Handbook is the first work intended to offer international, encyclopedic coverage of research and studies in the whole field of adult education. With 127 articles written by international specialists, this work will be an invaluable reference source for all those who are engaged in educational activities for adults, either as full-time planners/administrators of educational programmes, or part-time adult educators. There are, for example, articles on education for work and for living, on population education, peace and environmental education, and on learning for personal development and role fulfilment. Conceptual frameworks, practical issues relating to instructional methods, counselling, curriculum and evaluation, and developments in distance learning, group learning, and adult learning are some of the topics discussed. Systems of adult education worldwide, as well as adult education processes and practices, are covered region by region. The problems and initiatives of the developing countries are given attention alongside those of advanced countries. The collection of articles assembled in this Handbook is unique in the range and depth of treatment given to the field of adult education. This volume will thus be of great interest to all engaged in educational activities for adults, in adult schools, community centres, institutions of higher education, as well as educationalists, planners, and decision-makers throughout the world who are involved in adult education at all levels.
Download or read book Continuing Higher Education and Lifelong Learning written by Michaela Knust and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-08-02 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anke Hanft and Michaela Knust The present study examines and compares the structure and organisation of c- tinuing higher education in six countries: Austria, Finland, France, Germany, the UK and the USA. The focus is not just on current continuing education provisions at higher education institutions but also on the institutions themselves and their surrounding milieu. The study also attempts to move away from a purely national angle and to approach the topic from an international perspective. The conclusion is reached that when it comes to the development, establishment and professional implementation of continuing education provisions, German higher education ins- tutions lag behind the other countries in the comparison in almost all areas. The main ndings in terms of the three levels ‘system’, ‘institution’, and ‘programme’ are summarised below. 1 Continuing Education in the Higher Education System There are considerable divergences, both nationally and internationally, in the d- inition of the German term “wissenschaftliche Weiterbildung” (“academic c- tinuing education”). In the English-speaking world, a variety of terms such as “lifelong learning”, “adult education”, “continuing education”, “continuing higher education”, “university-level continuing education” or “continuing professional development” are often used as synonyms without any precise differentiation – and this is not perceived as a problem.

Download or read book The Foundations of Adult Education written by Assoa Ettien and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Pedagogy - Adult Education, grade: A, Atlantic International University, course: The Foundation of Adult Education, language: English, abstract: This piece of work was an opportunity for us to view Adult Education from the historical point. Indeed, we tried to define what adult education is and how it emerged, developed through time and space. About time and space, we moved to the French speaking Africa, particularly to Ivory Coast to present how Adult Education, particularly Andragogy is perceived by the people and by the government. Then we tried to show how Andragogy should be understood and why it is important and urgent to incorporate andragogic principles to teachers' training. At this information technology age, continuing to be submitted to pedagogic principles refers to refuse development, but we preferred the option of progressive changes. That is why we first proposed collaboration between Andragogy and Pedagogy as a transition for all the educative community to know better andragogic principles and be prepared for the change. In order to prepare them for the change, future teachers must be exposed to the new principles that consist in learning how to learn rather than being taught. We hope that this will prepare future teachers' minds for the real change for a fully learner-centered, self-directed and auto-learning! The full use of andragogic principles must be perceived as a democratization of knowledge. To use Mark Esposito's words (2007), continuing with Pedagogy means that we decide to rely on others to tell us "what to learn", "how to learn it" and also "when to learn". How and why can we accept to be so dependent? When are we going to take the responsibility to "kill our masters", the pedagogic teachers and be our own masters, meet our own learning needs, and demand all training providers to do the same?

This book was released on 1976 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of a series which examines recurrent education in countries which are members of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), this document examines continuing education in France. The series is intended both to describe existing educational practice with regard to continuing education and to attempt an estimation of future developments in the field. Chapter I, Continuing Occupational Training and Recurrent Education, discusses the aims of continuing education in France and examines what is actually happening in this area of education today. The second chapter, Continuing Occupational Training as an Intermediate Stage between Innovation and the Reproduction of Existing Social Patterns, describes the steps which have been taken toward establishing a pattern of alternating periods of work and training. Difficulties encountered at the school and university levels and in industry are examined. The document concludes with annexes of statistical information. (Author/RM)
