More often than not, pedagogical designs still privilege the lecture-tutorial format, front-end loading and the positioning of the ‘teacher’ as expert. In a similar vein, pedagogical spaces tend to privilege the formal educational institution and its discourses, rather than productively engage with naturally-occurring learning spaces at work and in communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTo better prepare and support learners for dynamically changing futures, we need to truly flip the lens from teaching to learning, positioning at the core, the learner in contexts where learning and becoming occurs. This means considering what counts as a future-oriented learner and educator, recognising the importance of evolving identities, transitions and pathways that facilitates the processes of being and becoming. Equally important is the design and appropriation of pedagogical spaces and practices that are in themselves dynamic and future-oriented. This book questions the current delineation between the spaces of work, learning and communities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“This book represents a significant contribution to the literature on pedagogies of future-oriented adult learning and challenges the status quo in adult education. This book is a must-read for scholars, researchers, learners and educators seeking to under­stand innovative adult learning perspectives and experiences, enabling them to draw on this knowledge as they actively participate in the transformation process, while it also helps to understand the challenges in future-oriented adult education.” (Muhammad Imran and Norah Almusharraf, International Review of Education, Vol. 69 (6), 2023)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForward By Michael Fung (Group Director, Training Partners Group, SSG) \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Introduction (Dr Helen Bound,\u003cb\u003e  \u003c\/b\u003eInstitute for Adult Education, Singapore; Dr Jennifer Tan, National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore; Dr Rebekah LIM Wei Ying,  Singapore University of Social Sciences);)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 1: Learning Spaces and Pedagogical Practices\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Rethinking learning for a high skills economy (Anne Edwards, Oxford University, UK)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Learning as design and performative action: Symbolic technologies and challenges for education in the 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e century (Professor\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eRoger Säljö,\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eUniversity of Gothenburg, Sweden)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4:  Enhancing learning in the workplace (Dr Christine Owen, University of Tasmania, Australia)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e Chapter 5: Learners’ sense-making in and across blended learning environments (Dr BI Xiaofang, Institute for Adult Learning, Singapore; Dr Christine Owen, University of Tasmania, Australia and Dr Helen Bound, Institute for Adult Learning, Singapore)\u003c\/p\u003eChapter 6: The mastery\/performance conundrum in education: Learners negotiating the ‘paper chase’\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e(Dr Jennifer Tan Pei-Ling, National Institute of Education, Singapore)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e Chapter 7: Dialogical inquiry (AP TAN Seng Chee, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore and Dr Helen Bound, Institute for Adult Learning, Singapore)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 2: Identities and Transitions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e Chapter 8: Experience, identity and competence: Lifelong learning policy (Professor Henning Salling Olesen, Roskilde University, Denmark)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Towards Mastery: Operationalising identity development and implications (Dr Rebekah Lim Wei Ying, Singapore University of Social Sciences, Singapore)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 10: Transitions, institutional power and pedagogies for the future (Dr Helen Bound, Institute for Adult Learning, Singapore)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e Chapter 11: Afterword (Kjell Rubenson – Professor Emeritus University of British Columbia)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53516326469975,"sku":"9783030928667","price":98.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/pedagogies-for-future-oriented-adult-learners-flipping-the-lens-from-teaching-to-learning-9783030928667","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
