Having worked as a practitioner in lifelong learning myself for many years, I feel most grateful to the author and the publisher for their painstaking effort in bringing out such a resourceful handbook for the emerging professional community of lifelong learning with a focus on curriculum studies and practice. Reviewing this book, I have personally obtained much useful knowledge and techniques which could well be reintroduced into training programmes for adult education and lifelong learning practitioners, not merely in the context of the UK but also in other parts of the world.
Very useful book for anybody studying Cert.Ed/PGCE or DTLLS. Contains all relevant information to support analysis of theory to educational practice.
Supports understanding for further discussion and implementation
good book for our trainee teachers and those undertaking L & D modules
Fantastic resource for teachers in training and for doing SARS. Gives a great overview of curriculum, types and different areas within life long learning. Would definitely recommend to practitioners as well as trainee teachers.
The Learning Matters books are a great supplemental read. The book is easily accessible with some good supportive elements for use within assignments.
An ideal addition to the Curriculum module on the Diploma as well as useful for developing an understanding of the nature and development in curriculum design and impact on learners
This book is so easy to read and easy to find the information you need as well.

This book is great for new teachers and a big help with the curriculum assignment too
A good choice for the mandatory City and Guilds DTLLS unit however with current changes being implemented in September 2013 this may need revising.
An excellent and easy to read book that covers all a newly qualified teacher needs to know about Curriculum Studies.
