This is an irreplaceable guide to ways of using learners’ personal memories as a resource in learning; a source of knowledge, ideas and experiences for tutors and learners to draw on.
It is a compendium of good practice for tutors, other professionals and carers who are using older people’s memory work in a learning context. It includes many examples of projects and learning situations where, beginning with the sharing of memories, older people have gone on to develop skills in forming and sustaining relationships, oral and written communication, arts and crafts and literacy, and the use of modern information technology.
