| Abstract
|
:
|
This book argues that people learn from each other, in social exchanges which rarely involve a professional educator; so any community can be a setting for learning. By focusing on the different ways of working with people, this book builds on the essentially human abilities to query, adapt, rethink, understand or be confused. Its focus is informal educators, who work with individuals and groups in the community to promote their learning, and work in ordinary places rather than formal classrooms.
