Abstract:

This paper reports on research about students attending the Florence Melton Adult Mini-School, a pluralistic adult Jewish education network of community-based schools. The research gathers information on three aspects of the students' experience: 1) motivation for enrolling, 2) what potential learners expect from their teachers, and 3) the impact of the Florence Melton Adult Mini-School.
