Seller's Description:
Derek Briton's The Modern Practice of Adult Education: A Postmodern Critique is a hardcover First Edition/1st printing in Good condition. It contains markings throughout the book, particularly noticeable after Chapter 3. The covers exhibit some wear but still maintain square sharp corners and a nice glossy shine, while the binding remains square and tight. An organization stamp is marked out on the half-title page. Briton challenges the dominant depoliticized vision of adult education, questioning the modernist principles and moral foundations of contemporary practice. Drawing from his own journey to break free from modernist constraints, Briton offers a concise yet compelling critique of current educational practices, urging educators to embrace a postmodern pedagogy focused on active engagement. Rejecting conventional norms, the book emphasizes commentary over empirical data, multiple perspectives over singular narratives, and ethical reflection over standardized methods. By pushing the boundaries of adult education orthodoxy, Briton advocates for a diverse, ethical approach that challenges the instrumentalism of modern educational practices.
