The objective of this paper is to highlight the potential contributions of the post-critical perspective to social movement learning (SML). To achieve this aim, the study employs a thematic analysis of findings derived from a systematic literature review on deconsumption (an umbrella term understood as rejection of consumerism together with materialistic values prevalent in the Western consumer societies, encompassing movements such as voluntary simplicity, freeganism etc.). Identified themes are presented within the framework of post-critical pedagogy and analysed through its lens. This approach allows the researcher to demonstrate the implications and insights of the post-critical perspective in SML and adult education. This article argues that integrating the post-critical perspective into SML can yield a novel understanding of pertinent issues within this subfield. Such an application not only broadens the scope of adult education but also expands post-critical pedagogy itself.
本文旨在强调后批判视角对社会运动学习(SML)的潜在贡献。为实现这一目标,本研究采用了专题分析法,对有关非消费(一个总括性术语,被理解为拒绝消费主义以及西方消费社会盛行的物质主义价值观,包括自愿简约、自由素食主义等运动)的系统性文献综述中的发现进行分析。确定的主题将在后批判教育学的框架内提出,并通过其视角进行分析。这种方法使研究人员能够展示后批判视角对《学习语言》和成人教育的影响和见解。本文认为,将后批判视角整合到 SML 中,可以对该子领域的相关问题产生新的理解。这种应用不仅拓宽了成人教育的范围,也扩展了后批判教学法本身。

This study investigates the purposes and corresponding preconditions of member education practices in three Finnish political parties using the theory of practice architectures. To accomplish this, it examines the educational endeavours of three Finnish parliamentary parties—namely, the Centre Party of Finland (Suomen Keskusta), the National Coalition Party (Kansallinen Kokoomus) and the Social Democratic Party of Finland (Suomen sosiaalidemokraattinen puolue). The study draws on the theory of practice architectures, which provides a framework for examining the arrangements comprising the preconditions underlying practices—that is, purposeful endeavours based on established human courses of action. The research questions addressed in this study are as follows. What are the main purposes of education within the studied political parties? What preconditions enable or constrain the educational practices related to those purposes? The findings reveal that the Centre Party of Finland aims to foster expertise among its entire membership in a consistent and impactful manner, emphasising educational planning and supporting political ambition. Moreover, the National Coalition Party’s political education aims to foster members’ expertise and success, as supported by individualisation, while the Social Democratic Party of Finland’s party-political education focuses on engaging members and renewing the party, which are pursued through offering open educational opportunities and considering both local preconditions and historical knowledge. In conclusion, the identified purposes seek a balance between ensuring equality and supporting hierarchy among the party membership, while the identified preconditions indicate understandings of the political party as either a collective actor or an arena in which individual political actors operate.
本研究运用实践架构理论,调查了芬兰三个政党的党员教育实践的目的和相应的前提条件。为了实现这一目标,本研究考察了芬兰三个议会政党的教育工作,即芬兰中央党(Suomen Keskusta)、国家联盟党(Kansallinen Kokoomus)和芬兰社会民主党(Suomen sosiaalidemokraattinen puolue)。本研究借鉴了实践架构理论,该理论提供了一个框架,用于研究构成实践--即基于人类既定行动方针的有目的的努力--基础前提条件的安排。本研究涉及的研究问题如下。所研究政党的主要教育目的是什么?哪些先决条件促成或制约了与这些目的相关的教育实践?研究结果表明,芬兰中央党旨在以一致且有影响力的方式培养全体党员的专业知识,强调教育规划并支持政治抱负。此外,全国联盟党的政治教育旨在培养党员的专业知识和成功,并以个性化为支撑;而芬兰社会民主党的政党政治教育则侧重于吸引党员参与和更新政党,并通过提供开放的教育机会以及考虑当地的先决条件和历史知识来实现。总之,所确定的目的是在确保平等和支持党员等级之间寻求平衡,而所确定的先决条件则表明了对政党作为集体行为者或个人政治行为者活动场所的理解。

The article uses insights from the capability approach as a theoretical framework. It investigates the potential of higher education to provide fertile advantages regarding young adults’ participation in nonformal education and whether this potential is bounded by people’s individual characteristics and the wider social context in which they live. Applying descriptive statistics and multilevel modelling, we conducted a secondary data analysis of the Adult Education Survey for 29 European countries. The findings go beyond previous research by clearly demonstrating that the fertile advantages of higher education regarding participation in adult nonformal education are not absolute and straightforward. They are bounded not only by certain important individual characteristics (such as individuals’ social background and household income) but are also context-dependent. More concretely, they differ among countries and depend on various country-level factors, such as level of innovation and economic growth.
文章将能力方法的见解作为理论框架。文章研究了高等教育为青年成人参与非正规教育提供有利条件的潜力,以及这种潜力是否受到人们的个人特征和所处的更广泛社会环境的限制。我们运用描述性统计和多层次模型,对 29 个欧洲国家的成人教育调查进行了二次数据分析。研究结果超越了以往的研究,清楚地表明高等教育在成人非正规教育参与方面的巨大优势并不是绝对和直接的。这些优势不仅受到某些重要的个人特征(如个人的社会背景和家庭收入)的限制,而且还取决于具体情况。更具体地说,这些优势因国家而异,取决于国家一级的各种因素,如创新水平和经济增长。

Numeracy is a critical competency needed by adults to navigate their way through tasks in their personal and professional lives. Hence, it is critical that efforts are made to identify and address challenges that prevent adults from developing the numeracy skills needed to engage in society. In this research we identify the challenges facing adult numeracy eduction across Europe. A survey, which sought to investigate the main challenges faced by adult educators and policy-makers when delivering numeracy programmes, was distributed to leading figures in adult numeracy education in EU states. Twelve countries responded and challenges identified related to the lack of a standardised definition of numeracy, the lack of a standardised framework to support adult numeracy education and the need for professional development for adult numeracy tutors. In this paper we look at how these challenges manifest themselves in different jurisdictions and offer suggestions for overcoming these challenges in future.
计算能力是成年人在个人和职业生活中完成任务所需的一项关键能力。因此,必须努力发现并解决阻碍成人发展参与社会所需的计算技能的挑战。在这项研究中,我们确定了欧洲成人算术教育所面临的挑战。为了调查成人教育工作者和政策制定者在实施算术课程时所面临的主要挑战,我们向欧盟国家的成人算术教育领军人物发放了一份调查问卷。12 个国家作出了回应,所发现的挑战涉及缺乏对算术的标准化定义、缺乏支持成人算术教育的标准化框架以及成人算术辅导员的专业发展需求。在本文中,我们将探讨这些挑战在不同司法管辖区的表现形式,并就今后如何克服这些挑战提出建议。

Accessing higher education is a biographical learning experience for all students, which can promote transformations in individuals’ identities. This article aims to investigate the implications of biographical learning experiences on the students’ identities. We will explore African students’ biographical learning experiences in Portuguese higher education and how they shaped their identities. Biographical learning and identity theoretical perspectives were adopted. This is a qualitative study that used biographical interviews with 22 African students enrolling at Portuguese higher education. The content analysis carried out has been organized into 2 themes: biographical learning experiences and identity transformations. The results of the study show that African students gained new knowledge and skills and became more independent and autonomous. They develop their self-confidence and open-mindedness through a new way of seeing the world. Thus, African students’ experiences in higher education contributed to the formation and transformation of their identity.
接受高等教育对所有学生来说都是一种传记式学习经历,可以促进个人身份的转变。本文旨在探讨传记式学习经历对学生身份的影响。我们将探讨非洲学生在葡萄牙高等教育中的传记式学习经历,以及这些经历如何塑造了他们的身份。研究采用了传记式学习和身份认同理论视角。这是一项定性研究,对 22 名就读于葡萄牙高等教育机构的非洲学生进行了传记访谈。内容分析分为两个主题:传记式学习经历和身份转变。研究结果表明,非洲学生获得了新的知识和技能,变得更加独立自主。他们通过一种新的方式看待世界,增强了自信心和开放性思维。因此,非洲学生在高等教育中的经历有助于其身份的形成和转变。

Two research projects undertaken ten years ago explored the experiences of mature students’ access, progression and drop-out in higher education, relying on Habermas and Honneth for sensitizing concepts. This paper explores the implications of undertaking this research today adopting a different set of sensitizing concepts and in the process transforming the identity of the researcher. To this end, this paper moves beyond Habermas and Honneth to the critical theory of Negt and Kluge as a source of new sensitizing concepts informing a reimagined researcher and research project. Their work on experience, its dialectic nature, imploitation, obstinacy – as an alternative to resilience – and a sociological imagination are explored in order to identify possible new sensitizing concepts for researching adults returning to higher education. Implications for transformative adult education will be identified.
十年前开展的两个研究项目探讨了成熟期学生在高等教育中的入学、升学和辍学经历,并以哈贝马斯和霍耐特为感性概念。本文探讨了在今天开展这项研究的意义,即采用一套不同的感性概念,并在此过程中转变研究者的身份。为此,本文将超越哈贝马斯和霍耐特,将奈特和克鲁格的批判理论作为新的敏化概念的源泉,为重新构想的研究人员和研究项目提供信息。本文探讨了他们关于经验、经验的辩证性质、利用、顽固(作为复原力的替代)以及社会学想象力的研究成果,以便为研究重返高等教育的成人确定可能的新的感性概念。还将确定对变革性成人教育的影响。

With this text, we try to understand if – and if so, how – mature students are represented by and in the governing bodies of higher education institutions. With a theoretical framework that values above all the institutional dimension, we carried out thirteen semi-structured interviews with students and faculty members who are part of the various governing bodies with student representation of a Portuguese higher education institution. The data show that (i) the functioning of these bodies tends to be known only by the students who participate in them, (ii) the bodies usually react to, rather than prevent, the problems that arise, (iii) mature students are perceived as a source of ‘difficulties’ and ‘needs’, and (iv) student representation in governing bodies does not seem to fairly and equitably represent all students, and some specificities of mature students (among other underrepresented groups) seem to be made invisible.
通过这篇文章,我们试图了解高等教育机构的管理机构是否以及如何代表成熟学生。在重视机构层面的理论框架下,我们对葡萄牙一所高等院校的学生和教职员工进行了 13 次半结构式访谈,他们都是有学生代表的各管理机构的成员。数据显示:(i) 这些机构的运作情况往往只有参与其中的学生才知道;(ii) 这些机构通常是对出现的问题做出反应,而不是预防;(iii) 成年人被视为 "困难 "和 "需求 "的来源;(iv) 管理机构中的学生代表似乎并不能公平、公正地代表所有学生,成 年学生(以及其他代表人数不足的群体)的一些特殊性似乎被忽视了。

The data show that (i) the functioning of these bodies tends to be known only by the students who participate in them, (ii) the bodies usually react to, rather than prevent, the problems that arise, (iii) mature students are perceived as a source of ‘difficulties’ and ‘needs’, and (iv) student representation in governing bodies does not seem to fairly and equitably represent all students, and some specificities of mature students (among other underrepresented groups) seem to be made invisible.","PeriodicalId":43613,"journal":{"name":"European Journal for Research on the Education and Learning of Adults","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139839723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper investigates the characteristics and both material and emotional costs of upward social mobility through university education in Spain and the Dominican Republic. A comparative qualitative study has been carried out, based on biographical-narrative interviews, with a sample of 6 Dominican students and 9 Spanish students coming from an economically disadvantaged background. The results show the social mobility experiences and expectations of the participants and their families, with different nuances in the two contexts. The need to combine study with work is one of the main costs of university. The primary coping strategy in both countries is material and symbolic family support, but additional coping mechanisms to persist in studies are also evident. The conclusions highlight both the perspectives developed by the participants and the critical role of structural dimensions (social background, national context, recent history, economy, social values, culture, religious beliefs) in understanding their experiences in the university context.
本文研究了西班牙和多米尼加共和国通过大学教育实现向上社会流动的特点以及物质和情感成本。在对 6 名多米尼加学生和 9 名西班牙学生进行自传体叙事访谈的基础上,开展了一项定性比较研究。研究结果表明,参与者及其家庭的社会流动经历和期望在两种背景下有着不同的细微差别。需要将学习与工作相结合是上大学的主要成本之一。在这两个国家,主要的应对策略是物质和象征性的家庭支持,但坚持学习的其他应对机制也很明显。结论既强调了参与者的观点,也强调了结构性因素(社会背景、国情、近代史、经济、社会价值观、文化、宗教信仰)在理解他们的大学经历中的关键作用。
