High Noon in the Cold War by Max Frankel
From before the Enlightenment, individuals concerned for the poor and uneducated have endeavoured to offer learning opportunities of adults, but it was with the Enlightenment that real diversity came about as a number of organisations provided further, and in most cases innovative - educational opportunities. In this sense, adult education started out as a social movement. Throughout the 20th century much activity has been invested in making it a discipline worthy of university study and now much of it has indeed become institutionalized in Western Europe and America. More recently, the effects of globalization mean that we are beginning to see similar changes happening elsewhere in the world. Consequently, adult education has a significant role to play at an international level. Depicting the ways that adult education has evolved as society has changed and how it has been incorporated into lifelong learning, this set puts a stamp on an exciting field and important, far-reaching issues.| SKU | Unavailable |
