Diversity In Adult Education: Lessons Learned From A Master Of Education Program In Studies Of Lifelong Learning With A Focus On Africentric Leadership, Susan M. Brigham, Sylvia Parris
Adult Education Research Conference
n this paper we explore the lifelong learning experiences of students who graduated from a unique two year Master of Education (M.Ed) cohort program in studies of lifelong learning with a focus on Africentric Leadership.
