Download or read book Essential Readings in International and Comparative Adult Education written by Jost Reischmann and published by ZIEL Verlag. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often in international comparative studies, it is difficult to refer to older basic texts because they are hidden in old publications, difficult to locate. This book makes a selection of such old but 'essential' texts available and wants to docu-ment the long history of the international/ comparative perspective. 'Standing on the shoulder of giants' allows not only a grounded look back but hopefully also a reliable and experience-based look in the future. The editor of this book, Jost Reischmann, Prof. em., Bamberg University, Germany, has a long history in international and comparative adult education. He presented papers on conferences around the world, from San Diego (USA) to Soul (Korea). When the International Society for Comparative Adult Education (ISCAE) was founded in 1992, he became the first president and developed this society over many years. We hope this new book will help old-timers and new-comers to contribute to the enriching world of international comparative adult education.

Download or read book The Adult Learner written by Malcolm S. Knowles and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you tailor education to the learning needs of adults? Do they learn differently from children? How does their life experience inform their learning processes? These were the questions at the heart of Malcolm Knowles’ pioneering theory of andragogy which transformed education theory in the 1970s. The resulting principles of a self-directed, experiential, problem-centred approach to learning have been hugely influential and are still the basis of the learning practices we use today. Understanding these principles is the cornerstone of increasing motivation and enabling adult learners to achieve. The 9th edition of The Adult Learner has been revised to include: Updates to the book to reflect the very latest advancements in the field. The addition of two new chapters on diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website. This website for the 9th edition of The Adult Learner will provide basic instructor aids including a PowerPoint presentation for each chapter. Revisions throughout to make it more readable and relevant to your practices.

Download or read book Comparative Adult Education Around the Globe written by Kathleen P. King and published by Springer. This book was released on 2006 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rather than defying Western andragogy, this book addresses this popular theory from different international cultural perspectives, showing how it can be understood differently, or even misunderstood, in different social contexts. In fact, andragogy is not the only theory in adult learning. More are looking for alternative theories such as the theory of transformative learning. This book offers an opportunity to reflect on adult education in world communities, to critically examine our own practices and perspectives, and to gain valuable personal and professional insight. Kathleen P. King is a Professor and Director of the Regional Educational Technology Center (RETC) and Program Director of the M.S. in Adult Education and Human Resource Development at Fordham University's Graduate School of Education. Victor C.X. Wang is Assistant Professor at the Department of Professional Studies, University of California, Long Beach.
