Example text

There is a complex interplay between all three, that makes education for a more highly skilled workforce at the same time an education for better democracy and a more rewarding life. That is why the whole notion and value of 'lifelong learning for all' might be usefully seen as a complex and multifaceted process, that begins in pre-school, is carried on through compulsory and postcompulsory periods of formal education and training, and is continued throughout life, through provision of such learning experiences, activities and enjoyment in the home, in the work-place, in universities and colleges, and in other educational, social and cultural agencies, institutions and settings - both formal and informal - within the community.

For such reasons there is now widely held to be a need, in philosophical activities devoted to a thorough-going, intellectually responsible inquiry into such matters as lifelong education, to fuse description-evaluation, fact-value, quantitative-qualitative methods in new forms of inquiry, that are valuable both for the researcher and the policy-maker in educational matters. Such an approach would involve both groups in a common enterprise - what Lakatos (1976, 1978) might have seen as a 'progressive research programme' - of seeking to gain understanding and promote policy generation about lifelong education.
