Making Sense of Lifelong Learning (Hardcover)

Lifelong learning is a phrase often used and discussed by those working in colleges, higher education institutions and local authorities yet it seems few people really agree on what it means and the cope it covers.

This comprehensive book looks into the broad issue of lifelong learning, identifying the different ways it can be interpreted and considering the reasons why lifelong learning appears to be shunned by some. The book looks at different ways lifelong learning can be introduced into society, recognising that it does not just have to be formal training in educational institutions for skill enhancement but can also be a valuable contribution towards social regeneration in a diverse society.

Within the wider context of theories behind lifelong learning the author pays particular attention to:

· Evolving practice
· Finding the missing learners
· Encouraging wider participation
Making Sense of Lifelong Learning will be a valuable resource for anyone involved in developing adult education in universities, colleges, community centres and local authorities. It should also prove useful for staff and students on postgraduate courses which focus on issues of lifelong learning.
