University adult access policies and practices across the european union and their consequences for the participation of non traditional adults

Obiettivo



1. To examine and compare the participation in different European higher education systems of non-traditional, 'socially excluded' and/or second chance adults; and the extent to which this participation compensates for or merely replicates low levels of participation of these groups in higher education at a younger age

2. To study the institutional conditions and strategies affecting this second chance participation in different kinds of universities and different subject areas. To examine in particular the arrangements encountered at academic unit level, the experiences and perceptions of non-traditional students and faculty, and links between academic unit practice and central institutional management

3. To examine from cultural, political, educational and sociological perspectives the processes whereby non-traditional adults are enabled or prevented from participating effectively, with particular attention to the processes of definition and interaction which occur at student (academic unit) level, and adult students' experience of 'openness' and receptivity to their distinctive characteristics and qualities.

4. And thereby to develop guidelines and advice to policy-makers and institutional managers about the means to enhance the effective participation of adults from socially excluded and marginalised groups.
The research involves studying and concisely sketching, as our context, the policies for access to, and the actual participation in, higher education in six countries; comparing the extent of participation of young people from traditionally non-participating groups with that of mature age students (by gender, social class and occupation, ethnicity, and possibly other factors); refining the tools necessary for this work and the next phases, viz:
identifying openness by academic unit across a sample of 3-6 universities in each of the six countries and by single case studies in three others; analysing conditions and arrangements in a sample of four departments in each of these universities; creating a database by questionnaire to students; intensively interviewing from this a sample of students in each of these departments; and employing critical incident political, sociological and cultural-interactional means to identify and analyse the dynamics of access and exclusion as a basis for drawing broader conclusions.
