ANDRAGOGIE ET FORMATION DES FORMATEURS (ANDRAGOGY AND TRAINING OF TRAINERS)


Book Description

Bienvenue à bord de notre navette pour la destination temps et espace à la recherche de la philosophie la meilleure qui soutent l’apprentissage d’aujourd’hui. Ne dit-on pas que pour mieux comprendre le monde d’aujourd’hui, il faut interroger le passé ? L'idée de ce livre est née dans mon esprit il y a quelques années, lors de mes cours en andragogie, face à des professionnels tellement encrés dans le modèle transmissif du savoir qu’il leur paraît difficile d’admettre que la connaissance n’est pas transmise, mais plutôt construite ! C’est alors que nous avons cru bon de les transporter dans un environnement de vie naissante où il n’y avait ni maitre ni école pour imaginer comment se faisait l’apprentissage. Il devenait alors plus facile de percevoir le lien entre apprentissage et satisfaction des besoins primaires des premiers hommes. Ce livre s’inspire des résultats de chercheurs qui avant nous ont interrogé notre préhistoire en vue de découvrir comment nos ancêtres ont abordé l’apprentissage au point de laisser ce riche héritage de découvertes qui impactent le monde d’aujourd’hui ! Nous avons l’occasion de visiter quelques maîtres connus du passé pour essayer de comprendre leurs méthodes et espérons qu’une fois à destination, chacun de nous comprendra la philosophie de base de l’apprentissage, car il y a une façon d’aider à apprendre si nous pensons que la connaissance est construite et cette façon d'apprendre diverge de celle de ceux qui croient en une connaissance transmise ! Merci d’accepter de prendre part à cette aventure et sachez que vos pensées, vos émotions, et vos réflexions sont toujours les bienvenues




Research Anthology on Adult Education and the Development of Lifelong Learners


Book Description

Whether it is earning a GED, a particular skill, or technical topic for a career, taking classes of interest, or even returning to begin a degree program or completing it, adult learning encompasses those beyond the traditional university age seeking out education. This type of education could be considered non-traditional as it goes beyond the typical educational path and develops learners that are self-initiated and focused on personal development in the form of gaining some sort of education. Essentially, it is a voluntary choice of learning throughout life for personal and professional development. While there is often a large focus towards K-12 and higher education, it is important that research also focuses on the developing trends, technologies, and techniques for providing adult education along with understanding lifelong learners’ choices, developments, and needs. The Research Anthology on Adult Education and the Development of Lifelong Learners focuses specifically on adult education and the best practices, services, and educational environments and methods for both the teaching and learning of adults. This spans further into the understanding of what it means to be a lifelong learner and how to develop adults who want to voluntarily contribute to their own development by enhancing their education level or knowledge of certain topics. This book is essential for teachers and professors, course instructors, business professionals, school administrators, practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students interested in the latest advancements in adult education and lifelong learning.

Personalization and Collaboration in Adaptive E-Learning


Book Description

As part of e-learning, adaptive systems are more specialized and focus on the adaptation of learning content and presentation of this content. An adaptive system focuses on how knowledge is learned and pays attention to the activities, cognitive structures, and context of the learning material. The adaptive term refers to the automatic adaptation of the system to the learner. The needs of the learner are borne by the system itself. The learner did not ask to change the parameters of the system to his own needs; it is rather the needs of the learner that will be supposed by the system. The system adapts according to this necessity. Personalization and Collaboration in Adaptive E-Learning is an essential reference book that aims to describe the specific steps in designing a scenario for a collaborative learning activity in the particular context of personalization in adaptive systems and the key decisions that need to be made by the teacher-learner. By applying theoretical and practical aspects of personalization in adaptive systems and applications within education, this collection features coverage on a broad range of topics that include adaptive teaching, personalized learning, and instructional design. This book is ideally designed for instructional designers, curriculum developers, educational software developers, IT specialists, educational administrators, professionals, professors, researchers, and students seeking current research on comparative studies and the pedagogical issues of personalized and collaborative learning.

Europeanizing Education


Book Description

The study of common and diverse effects in the field of education across Europe is a growing field of inquiry and research. It is the result of many actions, networks and programmes over the last few decades and the development of common European education policies. Europeanizing Education describes the origins of European education policy, as it metamorphosed from cultural policy to networking support and into a space of comparison and data. The authors look at the early development and growth of research networks and agencies, and international and national collaborations. The gradual increase in the velocity and scope of education policy, practice and instruments across Europe is at the heart of the book. The European space of education, a new policy space, has been slowly coaxed into existence; governed softly and by persuasion; developed by experts and agents; and de-politicized by the use of standards and data. It has increasing momentum. It is becoming a single, commensurable space on a rising tide of indicators and benchmarks. The construction of policy spaces by the European Union makes Europe governable: policy spaces have to be mobilized by networks of actors and constructed by comparative data. They are the result of transnational flows of people, ideas and practices across European borders; the direct effects of European Union policy; and, finally, the Europeanizing effect of international institutions and globalization. The European space of education and research has become a new place of work through interconnected institutions, networks and companies, and it is being constructed through the flow of policy ideas, knowledge and practices from place to place, sector to sector, organization to organization, and across borders. This book will be useful to any scholar of the new arena of study, the European Space of Education.
