Wolf, Mary Alice
Lifelong Learning, v8 n5 p8-11 Feb 1985
Describes a study of 12 older learners, aged 60 to 80, of varied backgrounds, enrolled in a variety of educational programs. Complex reasons for choosing education, arising from personal needs, reminiscence, ambitions, and attitudes are evoked, and the process of reengagement is seen as accompanying the process of aging.
