During the course, scientific discussions and theoretical perspectives concerning adults&#8217; learning will be introduced. Adults&#8217; learning will be examined in both informal and formal contexts. The students will explore and discuss studies on adults&#8217; learning in different kinds of learning environments, such as culturally diverse workplaces, non-governmental organizations, higher education institutions, and transnational communities including migrants and non-migrants. In small groups, the students will plan a small-scale study on adults&#8217; learning and present their research plan in the last seminar. The seminars will be conducted in English.
