Americans in Transition: Implications for Community Colleges of a New Study about Adult Learners.
Carbone, John
Community/Junior College Quarterly of Research and Practice, v7 n1 p61-69 Oct-Dec 1982
Reviews the findings of Alsanian and Brickell's study of adults' returning to formal education and the causes of adult learning. Shows that career events, followed by changes in leisure-time activity, outnumber all other reasons for returning to school. Discusses the implications of increasing life transitions for community colleges, especially regarding staff development. (DMM)
