Title	Adult Learners
Speaker	Thorson, Mark
Date	2010-11
Description	Adult learners, those 25 and older, now comprise almost 50% of the higher education student population across the United States. In keeping with this growing demand, many Bethel instructors are asked to teach both traditional undergraduates as well as adult learners. Working with this population requires strategies that acknowledge their stage in life and the unique demands they bring to the higher education classroom. Investigate the following questions related to adult learners: 1) How are they similar and dissimilar from traditional undergraduates? 2) What instructional practices and assessment strategies have proven successful? 3) How can technology be used effectively? 4) What approaches to faith integration have been successful? In addition to hearing his thoughts, observe this skilled instructor as he implements principles and practices of adult learning theory with a cohort of General Studies learners in Frogtown.
