Social andragogy

Publication at Faculty of Education |
2021

Abstract

The publication deals with social andragogy and its anchoring in the system of applied sciences with social themes. It is not limited to an overview of theoretical knowledge, but is strongly focused on their practical application in the current turbulent social environment.

In addition to formal and informal influence on the adult in the system of school and out-of-school education, it also includes informal learning, which inevitably affects the socialization, enculturation and personalization of a person in all situations and roles in which he enters during life. The comprehensive concept of social andragogy provides a unique overview of its theoretical foundations and practical applications in relation to target groups and possible interventions.

It allows you to take on the role of a social andragog, to clarify its competencies and practical possibilities. The use of social counseling plays a key role in situations where, for various reasons, an adult does not know how to get advice and needs professional help, for example in relation to family, children, life partner and himself.
