LEARNING LIVES CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS
Lifewide Learning & Education in Universities and Colleges
Lifewide Education's Learning Lives conference was held in March 2014. Its purpose was to recognise and celebrate the many different ways in which universities and colleges are encouraging, supporting and recognising learning, personal development and achievement gained outside as well as inside the academic curriculum. The book contains thirteen descriptive accounts of institutional schemes and other approaches to support and recognise learners' lifewide learning and personal development, together with a small number of research and evaluation studies aimed at understanding how students are learning and developing through their lifewide experiences.
