Providing culturally relevant adult education

"This volume of New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education offers an examination of theoretical and practical issues in providing adult education services to socially, politically, and culturally marginalized groups in the United States, with a particular focus on learner culture from the perspective of authors who share that cultural background." "Culturally relevant adult education focuses on popular culture, that is, learner culture and the cultural context of adult education programs. The contributors to this volume present and discuss various issues, models, and practices that marginalized learners can use to take control of their learning and their lives."--BOOK JACKET.
