Abstract

In this crucial period for American democracy with its many social, political, and economic problems and pressures, adults are spending much of their leisure time in organized educational group experience. Adult education activities are being offered by many private and public, national and local organizations such as government departments, libraries, museums, public schools, labor unions, churches, business and industry, public health, and social agencies. Professional leadership of adult education classes, forums, lectures, institutes, conferences, club and study meetings comes largely from the field of education, but also from psychology and social work.1 The subject matter of activities varies as widely as the backgrounds of the people teaching it.
