Risky Journeys: Cross-Cultural Adult Education Practice in Aboriginal Australia.
Willis, Peter
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v48 n3 Fall 2002
An expressive way of presenting forms of adult education practice was developed using a phenomenological methodology. A case study of a cross-cultural awareness course in Aboriginal Australia illustrates the textual genres used: backgrounding, sketching, poetized reflection, intuiting and distilling using metaphorical and imagistic language, and open-ended reflection. (Contains 28 references.) (TD)
