In a next step, the results of this first (qualitative) survey will be transferred into a new questionnaire, which will then again be presented to experts from different countries and continents (e.g. some contributors to this year's cancelled international "Adult Education in Global Times" conference, AEGT2020). Although the first section of the questionnaire asked about immediate effects, respondents already mentioned likely changes in the near future here: "A new training for teachers, counsellors and other practitioners in adult education and learning will be necessary" (ID 45). In the second part of our questionnaire, we asked the experts about their expectations of the future effects of the COVID-19 crisis on adult education. ./cache/cord-306141-19o76jqr.txt ./txt/cord-306141-19o76jqr.txt
