Lifelong Learning Policy and Research. This item is unavailable.Lifelong Learning Policy and Research

This volume represents an attempt to sketch the outlines of a research agenda for lifelong learning. In setting out an array of diverse ideas, themes and questions, it aims to provide reference points for researchers which should help foster dialogue on the "contested territory" of lifelong learning. A broad perspective is offered, ranging from issues in school education to vocational education, higher education and adult learning. The book contains the report on a research agenda for lifelong learning prepared by the Task Force on Lifelong Learning set up by the International Academy of Education. It also contains papers read at an international symposium sponsored by the Wenner-Gren Foundations, and organised in co-operation with the Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences. It is addressed principally to teachers, students and researchers in education and the social sciences, as well as research planners and foundations.
