Abstract | Many adults return to formal learning situations to pursue lifelong learning goals because their lives are in transition from dealing with real-life problems such as divorce and re-marriage. The purpose of this study was to describe what couples learned that contributed to the success of their subsequent marriages and how they learned it. The following categories emerged from the data: Divorce Recovery Process, Life Stage Development, Tests, Communication, Spiritual Foundation, Children, and Zestful Companionship. The major conclusions from the study are (a) that a history of unsuccessful relationships can be changed to successful relationships with couples moving from the unsuccessful, divorce track to the long-term, successful marriage track and (b) that this successful transition is grounded in effective learning, utilizing adult learning principles that include self-directed learning, real-life learning, critical thinking, and metacognition. (As Provided). |
