After the great success of the previous International Course of Lectures, this innovative concept of learning will be continued with another important topic: learning cultures.
Learning cultures are based on individual and collective images of learning. Those images are holistic and refer to the whole context of learning.
In this international course of lectures, several European experts will give an insight in the learning culture of their countries. Their definitions of learning cultures, concerning traditions, values, social and institutional frameworks will be presented with a particular focus on adult education.
Six European experts will inform about the developments of new learning cultures: what kind of new learning cultures can be observed? What are the new learning cultures especially in adult education? How does public policy promote new learning cultures? And which learning cultures are being promoted?
This International Course of Lecture and the seminar will be completed by an International Workshop. The workshop will take place at the Haus am Turm in Essen and will be attended by students and lecturers from the EMAE partner universities.
