Originally published in 1989, it was thought that one effective way
out of the unemployment problem facing many young people in Britain
at the time was to ensure that vocational courses in further
education had a close 'fit' with the needs of industry and
commerce. People involved in further education were therefore
making tremendous efforts to develop appropriate forms of learning
and assessment and to achieve effective communication between
college and employers. The contributors to this book provide a
clear assessment of directions in further education and an overview
of the key changes and developments taking place at the time. Many
of the changes and developments discussed profoundly altered the
nature and structure of educational provision for the 16-19
age-group and mature students returning to learning. Topics
explored are some of the more important issues challenging FE at
the time: facilitating learning; assessment and profiling; course
evaluation; the Open Colleges movement; the Review of Vocational
Qualifications; ethnic minorities and FE provision; open learning
strategies. Each chapter is written by an experienced teacher
actively involved in formulating and putting into practice many of
the new ideas being developed within further education at the time.
The book will still be of interest to people working in further
education, adult education and continuing education.
