IAP BOOK SERIES
Lifespan Learning
The United States is rapidly becoming a longevity society that needs to improve education practices throughout the lifespan. This Lifespan Learning Series examines how expectations are changing to ensure better practices are being applied in elementary, middle school, high school, and college. The potential contributions of parents as teachers during early childhood are examined with suggestions for ways to compliment learning at school. Adolescents have valuable insights that can be revealed by administering our anonymous polls for students to share views about practices related to school stress, frustration and self-control, career exploration and identity, time management, cheating and values, attention and distraction, internet learning, tutoring, peer support, cyberbullying, and safety. Poll results are presented to school administration and faculty for consideration of reforms.
Adult learning has emerged as an expectation in most urban and rural communities. When educators understand the learning needs and cognitive limitations of middle aged and retired persons, they can offer instruction to help retain mental abilities, build satisfying relationships with peers and younger relatives, and support a life of purpose and meaning. Retired men and women are the fastest growing age segment of the national population. It is more possible to meet their needs when educators have an orientation to gerontology, learning in later life, and an understanding of aging. The Lifespan Learning Series explains conditions of learning and instruction for all ages and emphasizes the common need to enrich intergenerational relationships to build a cohesive society. The target audiences for these books are college students, teachers, school administrators, parents, community leaders, and extension educators.
