Creative Problem

In this paper, the author describes philosophical concepts of adult learning and their application as integrated with creative problem solving within the context of social justice and human rights. The context is framed by the work of the United Nations (1992) which emphasizes importance of women's roles and creativity in the process of forming a global community. Foundational theories (Gardner, 1999; Greene, 1995; Knowles, 1975; Lawrence, 2005; & Vygotsky, 1978) are connected to support this philosophical approach to adult learning. Creative application examples are shared featuring changes in women's education and subsequently their lives such as, a project guided by artist, Vic Muniz (Walker, Jardim, Harley, & Muniz, 2010) and an arts-based education program that changed the lives of incarcerated women in one female correctional facility (Mullen, 1999). The goal of this paper is to provide examples of how creativity and arts-based learning can be integrated within adult education promoting social justice and human rights.

<p>Character education is an important issue in the world of late-adult education. This is related to the phenomenon of moral decadence that occurs in the midst of society as well as in an increasingly diverse government environment. Among others include crime, injustice, corruption, violence in children, to the violation of human rights. This proves that there is indeed a crisis of identity and characteristics of the Indonesian nation. The existence of character education becomes an appropriate answer to the various problems that have been mentioned previously. It is known that character education is defined as education which develops character values in children so that they have values and character as their character, apply those values in their life, as members of society and religious, nationalist, productive and creative citizens. School as a place of education providers is expected to be a place capable of realizing the mission of character education.</p>
