Abstract

Contemporary living and working environment requires the ability to find, access and present information very fast. In order to achieve all requirements every citizen must improve itself in the process of lifelong learning. In this paper we present concept of lifelong learning and new tendencies in education based on digital technologies that simplify process of adult learning. In addition, we analyze possible influence of modern technology on lifelong learning of women in Serbia. Results of the survey that we conducted suggest that unemployed women with elementary and secondary education are relatively less interested to continue education based on conventional or non-conventional methods and that they are not familiar with advanced learning tools. Having in mind that this group of women is by default the most vulnerable relative to the rest of women population, lack of ambition for lifelong learning and limited knowledge on new tendencies in education bring additional concerns about their vulnerabilities, which should be take into account by the policy makers in order to implement policies on adult learning in more efficient and successful manner.
