In the project reported in this paper retired persons, living historians, were teachers of young adults. Professional persons now retired who were residents of one, large mid-west retirement home cooperated in the design and development of two career-history videotapes to benefit pre-professional university students. Nursing and teaching careers were addressed in the two tapes.The tape preparation and production methods are detailed. In-class evaluations from university students and from their professors yielded highly positive results for this personal approach to career history. Likewise, the retired persons who participated expressed satisfaction with the project as having met their contributive and expressive needs. Inter-generational applications and implications are noted. The authors conclude with specific recommendations for replication of this model project for greater involvement of older adults as educators of young adults. |
