Grace’s Reviews > Learning in Adulthood: A Comprehensive Guide > Status Update

Content error, p. 97 paragraph 1: “ in his model there are three dimensions involved in learning – cognition, emotion, and society.”
The graph depicts the three components of Illeris’s model as cognition, emotion, and environment, with society existing outside of and encompassing all the other dimensions. I believe it’s a typological error, not a graphical one.

“Learning regions, according to Walters (2005), refer to a geographic area of any size that has made a commitment to linking ‘lifelong learning with economic development to compete globally’ (p. 360).” Do you ever just want to scream and scream and scream. Great text! WONDERFUL quotes! But also I absolutely loathe the philosophy of EXPECTING lifelong learning for competitive economic reasons.
