Innovation, Continuing Education and Lifelong Learning

Stephen Downes

A chapter in Enabling Innovation, 2011, pp 81-83 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Johannes Sauer asserts that innovation is unthinkable without lifelong learning and that innovation and lifelong learning are two sides of the same coin. But viewing lifelong learning as nothing more than continuing education, he argues, would be incorrect. The idea “that lifelong learning equals continuing education and continuing education as resumption of organized learning after a preliminary stage of education must be regarded as too narrow” (Sauer, in this volume).
