Lifelong Learning and the Learning Society pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

With the release of the final volume of his trilogy, Peter Jarvis completes his comprehensive, multi-disciplinary study of lifelong learning and the learning society. Between them, these three volumes analyze every aspect of learning, from the fundamental psychology of the human drive to learn, to the global sociological apparatus in which learning takes place. In Volume 1, "Towards a Comprehensive Theory of Human Learning", Jarvis demonstrates how learning underpins humanity. By assessing theories of learning across all ages, he constructs a new model for analyzing how people learn.Volume 2, "Globalization, Lifelong Learning and the Learning Society", considers the effects on the learning society of sociological structures, politics and economics, alongside the moral and ethical basis of such a society. In the brand new Volume 3, "Democracy, Lifelong Learning and the Learning Society", the arguments of the first two volumes are brought together and furthered, asking what kind of society is possible as a result of learning?The book concludes that since human beings continue to learn, so the learning society must be a process within the incomplete project of humanity. All three books in the trilogy will be essential reading for students in education, HRD and teaching and learning generally, in addition to academics and informed practitioners. Peter Jarvis is an internationally renowned expert in the fields of lifelong learning, adult and continuing education and is founding editor of "The International Journal of Lifelong Education" - published by Taylor and Francis.
