All three of these technologies were used to promote self-directed learning, reflection and learner choice in the activities undertaken. Although these technologies were very successful for our students, the paper concludes that adult learners who take an online Masters programme are not typical of all adult learners, much less all adults.}, doi = {10.1080/01580370600751039}, issn = {0158-037X}, journal = {Studies in Continuing Education}, keywords = {laulonso, wlp}, month = {July}, number = {2}, pages = {121--133}, posted-at = {2006-08-10 15:09:49}, priority = {3}, publisher = {Routledge, part of the Taylor \& Francis Group}, title = {Learning technologies for adult continuing education}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/01580370600751039}, volume = {28}, year = {2006} }
