THE SOCIETY

The Society for Learning in Retirement (SLR) is organized to provide shared-learning opportunities for retirees and others seeking knowledge and new insights on a variety of topics. The Society is sponsored by Westminster College.

Members participate in Study Groups on topics that interest them and share responsibility for their own learning. If you love to learn, SLR may be just right for you.

“A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.” - Oliver Wendell Holmes

WHAT IS SHARED LEARNING:
Shared learning means that participants each take an equal share providing the learning experience of their Study Group. Each person prepares one topic related to the Study Group theme and presents that topic to the members of their group

HOW LONG IS A PRESENTATION:
A presentation usually lasts 20-30 minutes, allowing time for discussion and sharing of information and ideas with other group members. Two presentations are given each day, with a short coffee break in between.

IS ANY HELP AVAILABLE FOR PRESENTERS?
Before each term, a workshop is offered on how to make a presentation. Each Study Group is led by a moderator, who can help with selection and presentation of topics.

WHAT RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE?
The Society provides a photocopier, VCR, DVD, television, overhead projector and CD tape player for your use.
