Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'New Schools for Older Students' provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the adult education movement in the United States during the early 20th century. Written by Nathaniel Peffer, the work examines the shifting landscape of learning as it expanded beyond the traditional confines of childhood schooling to meet the needs of a maturing population. The book explores a wide variety of educational formats, including open forums, national institutes, workers' education programs, and university extension services.Peffer delves into the social and philosophical motivations behind these 'new schools,' arguing for the necessity of an informed and engaged citizenry in a modern democracy. By documenting the rise of non-traditional learning institutions, the text captures a transformative moment in history when education began to be viewed as a lifelong process rather than a finite stage of youth. The work serves as an essential historical resource for understanding the origins of contemporary continuing education and the development of institutional support for adult learners. It offers a detailed look at the pedagogical challenges and the democratic ideals that shaped the evolution of adult learning in America.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
