This paper briefly describes the main steps to conduct a systematic review and the use of this method in adult education and lifelong learning. Education databases, adult education journals and research reviews with the highest impact factor were screened to determine which types of systematic reviews are most often used (qualitative or mixed-methods vs. meta-analysis) and which topics (e.g. employability, lifelong learning) are investigated in these reviews. The objective is to become familiar with the use of systematic reviews in the case of research in the fields of adult education and lifelong learning over the last five years.

Abstract

This paper briefly describes the main steps to conduct a systematic review and the use of this method in adult education and lifelong learning. Education databases, adult education journals and research reviews with the highest impact factor were screened to determine which types of systematic reviews are most often used (qualitative or mixed-methods vs. meta-analysis) and which topics (e.g. employability, lifelong learning) are investigated in these reviews. The objective is to become familiar with the use of systematic reviews in the case of research in the fields of adult education and lifelong learning over the last five years.
