Product Description
Product Description
For teachers, aspiring teachers and other professionals in upper secondary schools, further education colleges and universities who wish to increase learner motivation and to create opportunities for greater learner autonomy.
From the Back Cover
Technological and employment change in Europe is intense. Preparing young adults for this environment requires that fundamental changes are made to the present education system. Motivating and retaining young people is difficult; many leave education with little to show for the years spent, and little to offer employers. This book is a much needed handbook for teachers, managers and policy makers; it provides insights and practical strategies to make education more relevant to the lives and needs of young adults.
Teaching Young Adults offers practical solutions based on original research - carried out across Europe - into the communication styles of teachers and learners, and into the constructs that students use when informally evaluating their teachers. The authors suggest that the current provision of education is out of touch with the needs of young adults in the growing further education sector; but they argue that even within the present flawed system, teachers work with young adults in ways which form the foundation of lifelong learning. This book will be an invaluable, up-to-date handbook for teachers on PGCE training for secondary, further and higher education; students of education at undergraduate and postgraduate level; education managers and policy makers.
