Demonstrating what it is like to be an adult learner in today's
world, this book focuses on language, literacy and numeracy
learning. The authors explore the complex relationship between
learning and adults' lives, following a wide range of individual
students in various formal learning situations, from college
environments to a young homeless project, and a drug support and
aftercare centre.
The study is rooted in a social practices approach and examines
how people's lives shape their learning. Themes addressed range
from: how literacy is learned through participation and how
barriers such as violence and ill-health impact on people's lives.
Based on a major research project and detailed, reflexive and
collaborative methodology, the book describes a coherent strategy
of communication and impact which will have a direct effect on
policy and practice
