Abstract

A brief review and theoretical analysis of issues involved in education for life skills was used to propose ways in which to extend work which has been done in identifying major life skills about which adolescents express concern. Using interviews, essays and questionnaires as assessment procedures, two studies were designed to explore concerns, knowledge, skills, needs and attributed sources of learning in these areas. The results suggested a taxonomy of perceived concerns and knowledge, in which social relationships, personal development and career skills were central.
