This webinar was delivered by Dan Shercliff, Ryan Ellershaw and Kim Mayall-Birds from Manchester Adult Education Service (MAES) who was joined by Cilla Ross from the Co-Op College.
In the aftermath of the First World War, adult education was recognised as a 'permanent national necessity' by the Ministry of Reconstruction who had been tasked with 'rebuilding national life on a better and more durable foundation.' In 2020 we again find ourselves with the need to 'rebuild' and adult education has a role to play. However, Covid-19 has led adult education providers to deliver a great deal of their provision online and many of these approaches are here to stay.
The webinar covered:
- The power of adult education to enrich lives and bring communities together (lessons from the past)
- How adult education providers have responded to Covid-19
- What adult education might look like in 20/21 and beyond
- Different types of online learning and their benefits (it isn't just clicking through online quizzes!)
- Making online learning accessible for people with low digital skills
- Finding the right course for you, your organisation and your beneficiaries
