Intergenerationelles Lernen ermöglichen: Orientierungen zum Lernen der Generationen in der Erwachsenenbildung (Erwachsenenbildung und lebensbegleitendes Lernen - Forschung & Praxis)

Demographic change makes new demands on the educational system. Programmes of intergenerational learning are becoming increasingly important in adult education. Professionals who are working in adult education are facing the challenge to enable intergenerational learning processes - which usually occur only in everyday and family life - through the development of specific courses. The author investigates in her empirical study the question of how adults respond to this challenge and how intergenerational learning can be enabled and realized.



Her findings allow the author to speak authoritatively about the professionalization and necessary qualifications of people in adult education with regard to intergenerational learning and to present proposals for research into, and the practice of, adult education.



This book presents the basis, both theoretical and practical, of two volumes brought out by W. Bertelsmann Publishers, "How Generations Manage Joint Learning: Theory and Practice of Intergenerational Learning" and "How Generations Manage Joint Learning: Methods for intergenerational training and education".
