| Summary: | The topic of <i>embedded literacy</i>, closely connected to <i>embedded learning</i> on one hand, and training in the workplace on the other, is a central theme for reflection on adult education in Europe and around the world. The Council of Europe indicates <i>knowledge</i> as a pivotal element for the economic and social development of the EU countries and the workplace is an important place for the learning and production of know-how and knowledge. The problem of achieving the competences needed for entering the current labour market concerns a large part of the adult population. And this is where <i>embedded literacy</i> comes in, a topic which the volume tries to deal with from a twofold viewpoint: through theoretical reflection outlining the theme against the development of the European labour market, and reflection on hands-on experiences resulting from a project financed by the European Community called CELiNE, <i>Content Embedded Literacy Education for the New Economy</i>, carried out between 2007-2009. |
