‘Learning for Life? Neighbourhood Houses, Adult Learning and Transitions to Higher Education’ – a mini book on learning in ACE and Neighbourhood houses.
By Dr Tracey Ollis, Professor Karen Starr, Cheryl Ryan, Dr Jennifer Angwin, Ursula Harrison, Deakin University
From the foreword by Maureen Ryan:
“In this book it is not the three Rs (reading, (w)riting and (a)rithmetic that describe the education going on: it is the three Cs, community, creativity and connection. The book tells the stories of active participants in Neighbourhood Houses, of the formal and informal learning with which they engage. This is a small part of the stories which reveal vividly the transformative nature of the participants’ engagement with the Neighbourhood Houses.”
