A theorist for professional organization and academic research on the one hand and the practical further education specialist on the other hand exchange their views and ideas on the positive and negative effects of a strategic orientation for third-party funds in an interview with „DIE“.
„First-party“, „second-party“, „third-party funds“ (p.18-19).

Jens Friebe beschreibt zunächst die demografische Alterung als zentralen Trend der gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen in Deutschland. Anschließend skizziert er die Herausforderungen, die auf die lebensbegleitende Weiterbildung zukommen werden, für deren Bewältigung aber auf fortbestehende Lernpotentiale im Alter zurückgegriffen werden kann.

Focussing on old age as a whole makes clear that gains as well as losses are characteristic for this life stage. Both aspects should be incorporated …
People constitute learning places themselves when a relational room perspective is the starting point of their action. Room in the learning place company can be relationally structured by further education processes. Spacings, syntheses and the consequently following dynamisation of learning places open up possibilities which contribute to a reinforced exchange of experiences. Participants of further education positively evaluate this exchange of experiences because it takes place near the wor…
The performances of the system theory for the generation of research questions The following is about to present the performances of the system theory for the formulation of research questions by means of an evaluation order. Central for this is the communication term, which is evaluated in terms of its significance for the development of research questions.
Education or competence – a pseudo alternative? It is a platitude that the structural change of society also leads to structural problems of further education. Therefore this is discusses intensively for some time past and the practical transpositions are gross. The impression of the authors is that it is argued, latently or explicitly, dichothomic even though that in fact is not necessary. In this contribution the authors want to expand on two such contradiction theorems with the intention …
