Education toward adulthood
Compartmentalizing adult education may not be the best way to meet the needs of adults and children, men and women. Age should not be the critical factor in educational provision, and the term adult is in any case misleading. Adult education will never have its full effect until the religious element in adult lives is taken into account. An ideal model of education would help both adults and children to achieve a mature and integrated adulthood. This model would integrate schooling, family, work and leisure and be completely intergenerational. Suggestions are given on the basis of experience in USA for more useful programmes and courses of study organized by Churches, and the importance of liaison with other agencies is emphasized
