Resumo(s)
Adult education, especially at the tertiary level, is significant when preparing citizens to
work in today’s continuously evolving markets, a hallmark of the knowledge-based
economies. This paper focuses on the identification of learning strategies used by
Portuguese non-traditional adult students who embark on lifelong learning routes to
obtain tertiary level education. The results of a case study undertaken within the project
PRILHE (Promoting Reflective Independent Learning in HE) funded by the European
Commission Socrates Adult Education Programme Socrates – (113869-CP-1-2004-1-UKGRUNDTVIG-
G1) are presented and discussed. It seems that there is still a long way to
go before non-traditional adult students can benefit from lifelong learning opportunities, at tertiary level in Portugal; nevertheless the study presents evidence of some “best
practices” in TS which could be shared with HEI.
