Lifelong Learning: A View From the Coal Face by Rosalie Marsh
• Marsh revisits previous research – relevant today – which examined how the
then current government initiatives could contribute to the development of
human potential and more importantly, the whole person; the centre of
Rosalie Marsh’s personal ethos. This extensive research was undertaken
in the light of a then, new focus on Work-Based Learning. Marsh examines
various issues and new initiatives of the day and reflects on where we are
now in the light of recent reports on current skills levels in the UK.
• Through literature review, empirical research and semi-structured interview,
Marsh asks: ‘What is lifelong learning?’ and ‘Why Lifelong Learning’. The
author looks at the wider issues of learning; opportunity; access;
professional and personal development to name a few, before asking if the
success of the initiatives are being effectively measured.
Aimed at the Home Learner and designed to read in bite-sized chunks, this user-
friendly series of Personal Effectiveness Guides, seeks to enable readers:
• to achieve their potential
• become more effective and confident
• develop themselves throughout their lives and careers
• work towards a successful future.
