Die Corona-Pandemie hat zu einem Digitalisierungsschub in der Weiterbildung geführt. Doch werden die damit verbundenen Veränderungen nachhaltig sein? Aufbauend auf einer Systematisierung von Bildungsformaten identifizieren der Autor und die Autorin fünf Trends für Weiterbildung nach der Corona-Pandemie.
Krise & Chance Krisen sind etwas, womit moderne Gesellschaften leben müssen, so Heinz-Elmar Tenorth im »Stichwort«. Die aktuelle Corona-Krise wirkt sich unterschiedlich auf die verschiedenen Bildungsbereiche aus – was auch mit deren jeweiliger Handlungslogik zu tun hat (Ulrich Heine¬mann). In der Erwachsenen- und Weiterbildung sind neben den (wirtschaftlichen) Folgen für die Einrichtungen (Kohl & Denzl und Tafelbild) und die Lehrenden (Pia Probst) vor allem Fragen der Digitalisierung virulent…
Educational and Learning Research Based on three texts from the founding editors from the years 1985, 2000 and 2005, in this contribution, past as well as current scientific objectives of empirical educational and learning research, their embedding in theoretical contexts as well as methodical approaches are assessed and supplemented by further references from the author. Albeit the end results of the two founding fathers are, in the various years, rather sobering, it seems fruitful to thin…

Was verstehen Forschung und Praxis der Erwachsenen- und Weiterbildung unter Digitalisierung? Unter Rückgriff auf Ergebnisse des Kooperationsprojekts »PODium« arbeitet der Autor unterschiedliche Dimensionen des Begriffsverständnisses heraus und zeigt, wie diese Dimensionen von der Praxis während der aktuellen Corona-Pandemie aufgegriffen wurden.
With respect to the Spatial Turn, an orientation becomes visible which clearly refers to the materiality of spatial arrangements. This trend to re-establish materiality entails the risk of returning behind the state of the Spatial Turn achieved so far. One opportunity to avoid the “space trap” might be to turn to a topological perspective. Such a perspective in adult education opens up for removing blind spots in the reception of the Spatial Turn and thus for the introduction of a frame that ca…
Times for (re)interpretation Transitions and their adaptation from the perspective of biographical research The contribution asks for the meaning of transitions in the educational system from a perspective of pedagogical biography research. Transitions effectuate initially mainly insecurities, clearing of one’s own basis, development of new perspectives, accepting or changing of the new situation, release of energy and activities for mastery of changes. In the example of an interview passage …
Was bedeutet es, die Wirkung von Weiterbildung zu messen? Was kann überhaupt wie gemessen werden?

Hierüber sprach Redakteur Jan Rohwerder mit Prof. Dr. Andreas Martin, Leiter der Abteilung System und Politik am Deutschen Institut für Erwachsenenbildung (DIE) und Professor für Bildungswissenschaft an der FernUniversität in Hagen, und Dr. Sabine Schwarz, Le…

Intergenerational learning can be considered as a chance for institutions of adult education. Besides explicitly planned courses for different generations, intergenerational learning opportunities also take place incidentally in the educational work in seminars and courses, when the participants belong to different age groups. In both cases, the question arises how to arrange those courses didactically in order to support intergenerational learning processes. Based on systematic considerations …
