Main themes This module enables students to : - explore the usage of these terms, understand the principles of employment in different areas, put this usage in different contexts, develop a critical approach - explain and classify the international literature in this area : history, recent developments, debates, contradictions - understand the research in different fields : work and business, voluntary sector and social action, leisure, daily life etc. - link this dimension of learning with other forms of education (relationship between informal and formal, process of formalization) - explain the learning theories which can help to understand the processes which underlie them : situated learning and participation theory, theories on experiential learning etc. This issue does not only concern adults. It is of course covered from an adult perspective, but in a context of a lifelong process and the relationship with the forms of primary education and that between adults and children. It involves more general examination of the issue of practice, of a social approach to education and learning, of the relationship between general theories on practice and learning theories.
Aims The objective of this module is to present and examine research and theories which deal with learning in situations which are not constructed with this objective in mind. Various social practices are explored, including (but not exclusively) work-related ones where they appear to promote learning. This refers to what the literature has termed informal education or learning, diffuse, situation-based, fortuitous, incidental education or learning etc.
