Aging Education provides educators in aging studies with a unique
text that responds to the paucity of instructional strategies and
teaching materials. Editors Nieli Langer and Terry Tirrito meet the
challenge of educating and training students and providers of
service to an aging population in all the various instructional
programs (gerontology/geriatrics degrees) and non-credit workshops
currently offered in different settings (hospitals, nursing homes,
professional associations, in-service training, etc). By developing
and explaining a multidisciplinary approach to working with older
adults in areas related to health, education, ethics, law, cultural
competency for a multicultural population, translating social
policy into practice, spirituality, and human services, the editors
provide an imaginative and thought-provoking unmet need for
gerontology educators by providing them with teaching and practice
strategies in aging education.
