2014. NATIONAL COORDINADOR FOR THE EUROPEAN AGENDA FOR ADULT LEARNING Agenda de la Educación de Adultos para el 2020:  ONE STEP UP IN ADULT LEARNING: CREATING NEW OPENED MATERIALS

The General Sub Directorate for Lifelong Learning regulates and organizes general and common structures for Adult Learning for the whole national territory in Spain. Autonomous Communities adapt this framework to their context.

The Directorate is preparing a base for the new curriculum for Adult Learning according to the new Education Act and to the current adults needs. That is why we have considered that it would be very important and necessary to elaborate and offer new materials to fulfil the aims of the Adult Curriculum. They will be later structured in twelve different courses by level and area, and their content will be connected with the different areas of the new curriculum: basic skills, social
and communication skills in mother tongue and in the second language, ICT competences, mathematics and problema solving competences, entrepreneurship, etc…


When these courses are implemented by AULA MENTOR, a certificate will be issued according to AULA MENTOR administrative rules.


The target group is any adult interested in formal and non-formal education not only in order to get a certificate but also for personal development.

Our aim is that these materials are used not only by individuals but also by professionals, adult centres, public and private schools, academies, NGOs, etc.

UNESCO declaration on Education for Sustainable Development (2009): how can its emphasis on participatory, critical teaching and learning methods which can motivate and empower learners to change their behaviour, and take action, for sustainable development be incorporated in policies – in Europe and the world? Social and economic crises have shown the fragility of existing institutions and policies. The development of sustainable policies and practices for adult and lifelong education has become vital.

Dana-Carmen Bachmann dana-carmen.bachmann@ec.europa.eu, the Head of vocational training and adult education unit of the European Commission, says that fusion of vocational training and adult education units has enhanced Commission's work on both áreas. Coordination is very important. (...) The units were joined from the beginning of 2013. (...) Leading a combined unit with 30 staff members requires good organisation, within the unit and with other units and DG´s of the Commission, but also with a wide range of stakeholders, like NGOs, member states, and so on," Dana-Carmen Bachmann tells.

 People and organizations in charge in Adult Learning in Europe Selection results - National Coordinators for the Implementation of the European Agenda for Adult Learning.
The strategic framework for education and training defines four common objectives to address these challenges by 2020:

  • Making lifelong learning and mobility a reality;
  • Improving the quality and efficiency of education and training;
  • Promoting equity, social cohesion, and active citizenship;
  • Enhancing creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship, at all levels of education and training.
These priorities are addressed by the European Commission, by European member States, by other countries participating in the Erasmus + programme, by education institutions, education stakeholders, networks, associations by working on the following topics:

  • Awareness-raising;
  • Financing adult learning;
  • Higher education: access to adults;
  • Monitoring the adult learning sector;
  • Quality;
  • Reaching out to specific target groups;
  • Validation of non-formal and informal learning. 
(...)

What are the European targets? In the field of adult education, the target set is as follows: by 2020, 15% of adults aged 25-64 should be taking part in adult education. (Eaea.org en policy advocacy. Eaea and European policies. European Agenda for Adult Learning).

SPANIARS ARE IMPROVING OUR ENGLISH LANGUAGE according EF ENGLISH PROFICIENCY INDEX 2014 

The results show a continuing trend towards better English language skills in Spain, with the country one of the biggest improvers since 2007 — behind only Turkey, Poland and Estonia.
"Spain is seeing the results of a significant change in attitude toward English language education. The Spanish government has defined English as one of  seven basic skills, alongside Spanish and math," the authors of the EF study noted.
The report also noted the huge increase in the number of bilingual schools in the country, where students spend 30 percent of the day in an English-speaking environment
The latest EF English Language Proficiency Index showed Spanish women had slightly better English than Spanish men, while people aged 35 to 44 had the best English. In terms of regions, the highest scores were in the Basque Country while the lowest were in Extremadura
The EF study also concluded there exist strong correlations between English proficiency and income, quality of life, ease of doing business, Internet usage, and years of schooling. These correlations are remarkably stable over time, stated EF in its findings.
Across ages

A vision underlying literacy strategies should be built around all stages of life, stretching from birth, through the school years and adulthood into retirement. Literacy strategies should not just focus on children’s development, nor should they deal exclusively with adult education. This approach necessarily involves the entire range of relevant individuals and organisations. Family literacy programmes in particular can play an essential role in policies which cover the whole spectrum of lifelong learning (see also CHARTER 3) Education Policy School Literacy Report. Unión Europea, 2012 WITH Make use of the full diversity of materials 

There should not be a hierarchical ranking of reading material. Books, comic books, newspapers, magazines and online reading materials are equally valid and important entry points to reading for children and adults alike. A literate, motivating environment is one that encourages and supports a wide diversity of reading materials and Reading practices. Books and other printed texts are important. But in recognition of the digital opportunities, people should be encouraged to read what they enjoy reading, in whatever format is most pleasurable and convenient for them. This

includes reading and writing online. .... 

 

High -quality adult literacy courses require committe and well-qualified teachers.
 
Teaching adults requires qualified teachers, trained to deal with the specific challenges of adults. These adults have a long history of struggling in school, and managed to leave compulsory education without developing good reading and writing skills. They need high-quality teachers who treat learners as adults and give them individual attention.

However, at present, very few tutors have specific qualifications in adult literacy pedagogy. Well-qualified staff members 

 Participation and inclusion
  
Though lifelong learning has received significant policy attention in Europe in recent decades, our education and training systems are still based too much on the idea that learning is something we do when we are young. In many Member States, the adult education sector lacks coherence, with many unconnected or loosely connected activities that add up to less than the sum of their parts: such as awareness- raising campaigns, the offering of adult literacy courses, development of materials, activation of volunteers and other societal players, as well as engagement of people

close to the adults who require support. These factors limit participation among adults, as the message appears to be that they should have developed these skills when they were younger and there is no clear pathway towards improving them now as adults.

 
The adult participation gap
 
 
Adults with medium and high qualifications are seven times as likely to participate in lifelong learning as those with low qualifications. A tiny 4 % of low-skilled adults participate in lifelong learning, although these are the people who most need to strengthen their skills, and should have the highest participation rate.
The adult participation gap can be tackled in several ways:  by bringing literacy instruction into the workplace, through workplace literacy programmes; by making courses free and more accessible; and by using family links and NGOs to reach those who are hardest to reach.
A key way to attract low-skilled adults into lifelong learning is providing them with early success and early recognition of their achievements. Non-formal and informal learning form an important part of the lifelong learning process, but are not foten recognised or formally validated. This sends a mesage that informal lerning is less valuable.
  
 
 FUNDACIÓN SANTILLANA en la XXIX Semana de la Educación con el título “Mejorar la educación: ¿qué puede aportar la tecnología?“. Las jornadas dedicadas a la Educación en general sin tocar el tema de la Educación de Adultos, en febrero 2015 en Madrid, fueron contexto para la presentación del documento aquí y del que extraigo lo siguiente de su página 26: 

(...) Un importante logro científico del siglo XX fueron los grandes avances en la comprensión

de la cognición, es decir, los procesos mentales del pensamiento, la percepción y el

recuerdo, y su reflejo neurológico, que han dado lugar ya en el siglo XXI a un mayor desarrollo

de las denominadas ciencias del aprendizaje. Así, no estará de más recordar que

la investigación cognitiva ha demostrado que el aprendizaje es más eficaz cuando están

presentes cinco características fundamentales:

1. La participación activa del estudiante.

2. El aprendizaje cooperativo.

3. La interacción frecuente con retroalimentación.

4. Las conexiones con el mundo real.

5. El papel del profesor como orquestador de los recursos y referencial para los estudiantes.
