Description:
The true majority of American students are working-age adults.
Approximately 80% of those who need to start or finish a degree are over 25 years old, yet most institutions of higher education treat them as an afterthought. Courageous Learning offers a closer look at the needs of adult learners and provides a clear, comprehensive assessment of the adult higher education landscape.
The book features: in-depth profiles of a variety of long-established, accredited, adult-serving institutions; self-portraits of adult learners; definitions of post-traditional terms, such as ''credit by exam,'' and ''credit by assessment''; and, discussions on the major issues confronting higher education with some of the nation's most outspoken proponents for reform.
Courageous Learning underscores an urgent need to embrace a culture of lifelong learning. It is an invaluable tool for adults making the connection between learning and life success. It is also a must-have resource for educators who recognize our country's future is dependent on the ability to attract and support more courageous learners.
