Sites of adult education research in Saskatchewan were surveyed to identify the origins, goals and methodologies of recent research and factors which influenced its production. Research was found to be produced by a broad range of institutions and The University of Saskatchewan was the major site of research activities. Two research traditions existed at the two university sites surveyed; adult education for social change and adult education to meet multifunctional, including technical-rational societal goals. Human resource development and economic adjustment were not the focus of the majority of studies conducted. The possibilities for a future narrow economic agenda to dominate adult education research was recognized.
RésuméUne enquête a été menée dans divers lieux de recherche en Saskatchewan afin d'identifier les origines, les buts, les méthode utilisées dans les recherches récentes en éducation des adultes et les facteurs qui ont influencé leur production. Les recherches inventoriées ont été produites dans un large éventail d'institutions toutefois, l'Université de la Saskatchewan est le site majeur des activités de recherche. Deux traditions de recherche se côtoient dans les deux universités qui ont été examinées: une première qui découle d'une vision de l'éducation des adultes comme instrument du changement social, et une deuxième qui s'inspire d'une conception multifonctionnelle de l'éducation des adultes, incluant des aspects techno-rationnels et sociaux. Le développement des ressources humaines et les ajustements économiques ne sont pas le focus de la majorité des recherches recensées. Par ailleurs, on reconnaît que des visées plus étroitement économiques puissent éventuellement dominer la recherche en éducation des adultes.
