The book Lifelong Learning Today: New Areas, Contexts, Practices is
the result of cooperation between individuals from two well-known
centres of pedagogical thought and the adult learning theory:
University of Ljubljana and Jagiellonian University in Kraków. The
authors of the texts constituting the volume have a contemporary
and essentially correct understanding of the concept and idea of
lifelong learning as a continuing process which begins in early
childhood and goes on until the grand old age, formally divided
into time periods requiring defined pedagogical strategies. The
authors pointed out the areas and contexts of education not used so
far in their respective countries and unanimously formulated
suggestions on improving the worrying situation. Considering the
process of lifelong learning in a vertical dimension, they
demonstrated the achievements and shortcomings of education and
educating people at its various stages, including adult education.
They pointed out, how the effects and shortcomings of education in
a given period of life affect the educational efforts in the
subsequent periods and how to use positive organisational and
methodical experiences from earlier stages of education in its
later stages.
The book contains numerous timeless supranational generalisations,
which often lead to unambiguous suggestions regarding the
optimisation of the practices associated with education and
educating people at various stages in their lives.It is due to
those attributes that the book will be of interest not only to
theorists but also practitioners committed to furthering lifelong
education.
