What can secondary schools do to develop lifelong learning skills? ACER conducted research into lifelong learning in 1999-2000 to identify key educational concepts that are argued to provide the foundations for lifelong learning. ACER has now produced a second report that extends the research in a practical way by providing a set of case studies undertaken in a number of secondary schools in South Australia and Victoria. The report identifies ways that the foundations for lifelong learning can be built in secondary schools.
