Meaning of the Times and Future Direction of Elderly Learning from the Perspective of Active Aging
Elderly learning is the basic way for the elderly to adapt to the aging society and pursue a better life,and it is also the main way of active aging.Under the background of actively responding to the national strategy of population aging,the three major con-notations of"health,participation and security"of active aging should be re-recognized and enriched with the accelerated development of the aging process,and the three major themes of"what to learn,how to learn and why to learn"of elderly learning should be re-viewed in an interdisciplinary way to explore the meaning of the times and path dependence of elderly learning.Based on the theory of comprehensive and free development of human beings,this paper explores the supply of learning content for the elderly in the two di-mensions of core literacy and lifelong learning needs of the elderly from the perspective of elderly learning,and responds to the question of"what to learn";according to the theory of embodied cognition,organizes the elderly to learn and solves the problem of"how to learn"from two aspects of experiential learning and scene creation;according to the theory of learning ecology,optimizes the learning conditions for the elderly from two levels of learning support services and technological empowerment,and ensures"why to learn".
