Description
Learning in groups has deep historical roots in adult education, and adult educators use groups frequently in structuring learning experiences. Also, groups form the basis for mauch informal adult learning, both within and outside institutional boundaries. Although many adult educators espouse the value of learning in groups, the topic has been a relatively minor theme in the field's recent literature. The purpose of this volume of New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education is to examine selected aspects of learning in groups, including both theoretical concepts and actual practice. The chapter authors assess the status of group learning in adult education; the volume should be helpful to adult educators as they reflect on their use of groups. This is the 71st issue in the journal series "New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education." For more information on the series, please see the Journals and Periodicals page.
