New books: Adult Education

Yikes! Over 2 months since my last blog post--that is not supposed to happen! The lack of activity on the blog certainly doesn't mean there isn't anything going on in the Library! A couple of new books on adult education:

Radicalizing learning: adult education for a just world by Stephen D. Brookfield and John D. Holst
Covers the traditional topics of adult education with a "radical" social justice agenda.
Check out Google Books for a preview or take it out from the Library.

Facilitating group learning : strategies for success with diverse adult learners by George Lakey
This book describes how to design effective learning experiences, and how to facilitate these learning experiences in a group environment.
Check out Google Books for a preview or take it out here.
