TRANSIT publishes books and other contributions on the future of continuing education that are available in various languages.

2022: Zusammenhänge

Ten dialogues on the future of continuing education have been published in German in a handy book. It is entitled «Zusammenhänge» («Connections») and is available in the SVEB Shop.

Between 2018 and 2021 ten conversations with experts from a wide range of disciplines were conducted. They are an invitation to look at learning in the future from a variety of perspectives. And to ask ourselves under which social and technological conditions we are learning today and in the future? Which competences may bring us further? And in what depth we should actually learn in order to meet the challenges that will come our way?

2019: Education Permanente

Special issue of the journal “Education Permanente” in the future of adult education. Available in German and French.

It’s a real eye catcher thanks to a special effort of the graphic team. But it also has a lot to offer in terms of content.

The magazine continues TRANSIT’s exploratory work. In addition to numerous interviews with experts from all over Switzerland, it also includes a contribution on the role of science for the development of a future strategy for adult learning, an analysis on the significance of lifelong learning as a social innovation, and a research on how the institutions of adult learning are preparing for the future.

Particularly worth reading is the report on a specific project: Openki. It aims to facilitate self-organised learning sessions. The makers of Openki consider their project as a lab for a new way of leaning without dedicated roles of teachers and learners.
