Description
The fourth edition of this bestselling book examines the breadth of lifelong learning from Adult and Further Education through to training in private and public industry and commerce. Revised and updated throughout to include recent initiatives and developments in the field, it is the definitive textbook on learning, teaching, resources, course planning and assessment in all areas of post-compulsory education and training.
The authors examine key areas in lifelong learning through topical discussion, practical exercises, theory, reading, analysis, information, and examples of student work. Popular features of the previous edition such as the chronology of post-compulsory education have been retained and fully updated.
New features include:
- Coverage of the new framework for teacher training, including the new Lifelong Learning UK professional standards, CPD provision, mentoring and subject coaching
- A re-evaluation of 14-19 developments including the creation of an English Baccalaureate (EBac)
- Developments in information and learning technology, particularly electronic teaching and learning resources
- Added coverage of personalization
- An expanded section on planning for equality and diversity
- Further information on embedding of language and literacy
This text is essential reading for teachers and students training to teach in post-compulsory education.
