2. Adult education should be non-vocational: 'Adult education more accurately defined begins where vocational education leaves off. Its purpose is to put meaning into the whole of life' 3. We should start with situations not subjects: 'The approach... will be via the route of situations, not subjects... In conventional education the student is required to adjust himself to an established curriculum; in adult education the curriculum is built around the student's needs and interests'. 4. We must use the learner's experience: 'The resource of highest value in adult education is the learner's experience... all genuine education will keep doing and thinking together' (Lindeman 1926: 5-7) |

Education is life: 'The whole of life is learning,
therefore education can have no endings'.
