CHAPTER 6: Future Directions for Lifelong Learning

Hello helloo! see me again in my blog. Like usually, here i will share some review from chapter 6 about Future Directions for Lifelong Learning. I hope you guys can enjoy it. Happy reading guys!

As is true for native-born workers, success for immigrants in the United States is related to educational attainment and literacy levels. Those with a higher level of education and better literacy skills in English earn more and are more likely to be continuously employed than those without. 

The education level and literacy of parents also influences their children’s educational progress and success. The adult education field is connected to and influenced by a variety of workforce and post secondary education challenges and opportunities and by the tasks in daily American life that require knowledge of new technologies. 

  • Opportunities for developing needed knowledge and skills include the following :
1.  Transitioning from adult education programs to workforce training and post secondary education
2.  Workforce training and instruction to prepare for the workplace
3.  Training and instruction for those who are employed
4.  Workforce training and career pathways to provide opportunities for advancement
5.  Distance education for those unable to attend traditional instructional programs.


Maybe it's enough for this week. Thanks for your attention guys!
