Abstract

The paper focuses on educational paradigms that have recently became
widespread in the global higher education area and which may be significant
in training adult students. New attitudes towards teaching and learning, such
as student-centered, learning outcome and competency-based learning; new,
personalized admission and progression, such as alternative entrance or open
door policy, flexible, individual learning paths, accelerated learning; methods
building upon more active and responsible students, like self-directed and blended learning; validation of prior knowledge - just a few of the many. These paradigms, when becoming a common practice, may transform the entire higher education system. But at the same time, they probably lead to more adult student friendly universities. It is not the purpose of the paper to discuss these paradigms in detail, but to display some of the progressive views and practices based on an extended literature review.
