Lifelong Learning Trajectories: Some Voices of Those "in Transit."
Gorard, Stephen; Rees, Gareth; Fevre, Ralph; Welland, Trevor
International Journal of Lifelong Education, v20 n3 p169-87 May-Jun 2001
Case studies from longitudinal research on adult educational participation identified important determinants of lifelong learning patterns: age, place, gender, family background, and religion. The data suggest that adults' learning choices are made within the framework of subjective opportunity structures, including notions of what is appropriate for individuals. (Contains 43 references.)
