About this title

Synopsis

Adults learn more easily when classroom material is connected to their life experiences. This indispensable how to do it guide shows instructors and trainers in all areas of adult education how to customize course content to the needs and previous knowledge of their students. While sophisticated enough for experienced teachers, the book is an excellent resource for instructors and trainers who may have little or no classroom experience. The manual is especially suited to instructors of adult basic education, literacy education, English as a second language, and workplace basic education.
