Reflecting on where we are now, Marsh re-visits extensive research previously undertaken. She examines various issues and initiatives when there was a new focus on work-based learning - still relevant when she re-visited this research. The book is aimed at the the home learner in adult education. .
Through literature review and empirical research this book asks 'What is Lifelong Learning' You may also question 'Why Lifelong Learning?
This research paper on Lifelong Learning examines the human perspective. the economic perspective. the official perspective, and other perspectives before looking at other nations v the UK.
Marsh looks at the wider issues of learning, opportunity, access, and professional and personal development before asking if the success of the then government initiatives is being effectively measured. The results of the semi-structured interviews with a cross-section of mature adults bring surprising results.
Marsh also reflects on the changes and advances in the subsequent ten years post-research, that have become embedded in daily life in order to make learning and development more accessible.
