VITAE in ADULT EDUCATION

Introduction

There is a need to know more about some of the current and past leaders in the field of Adult Education. This vitae project was conceived. The idea is to develop information about such leaders within a format that provides some standardized handles or labels.

Based on input from colleagues, a review of author lists, and an examination of several historical documents, a partial list of individuals for whom vitae information would be valuable in helping all adult education professionals better understand our field is shown in the table below. Those highlighted as links have already been completed. In addition, International Adult and Continuing Education Hall of Fame recipients are shown in the following table and a complete list of all Hall of Fame recipients are provided in annual lists shown below the table. Obviously, when you make a list you always leave off some obvious people who should have been included. In addition, this list was created by a Professor of Adult Education living in the United States, so it contains obvious bias and lack of knowledge of noteworthy individuals in other countries. Thus, your suggestions are welcome, as are your contributions. Information is shown below on the format to use, the desire for a supportive photo, etc.

Photos of the person if in a gif or jpg format or if an URL to another site with the photo are welcome and encouraged.

PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS/ASSOCIATIONS

Record whatever appropriate information here that you can find in five separate categories, associated subjects, people, organizations (membership years, offices held, etc.), events, and places.
