Adults learn best when they are highly motivated, feel secure in their learning environment, and are treated with respect. The training should be relevant to their needs, pitched at the right level for their abilities, and presented in logical steps at the right pace with opportunities for active participation. Finally, the training environment should be physically comfortable and the skills learned immediately useful.

Learning frameworks presentation
Cassidy Edwards discusses their favorite assignments from class including a self-assessment, financial planning assignment, and discussion on processing theories. They also discuss favorite journal entries that helped them improve self-awareness, time management, and emotional intelligence. Cassidy indicates their favorite week was the first week of class and lessons learned included self-management, affirmation, and positive thinking. Scores from their beginning and ending self-assessments are provided showing improvement in various areas including self-management and self-awareness.
Academic Behaviors for Student Achievement
The document discusses five noncognitive factors that can improve student learning and achievement: 1) Academic Behaviors, 2) Academic Perseverance, 3) Academic Mindset, 4) Learning Strategies, and 5) Social Skills. It provides examples of behaviors for each factor such as attendance, time management, grit, self-discipline, sense of belonging, empathy, and study skills. The goal is for teachers to use one of these factors daily to strengthen noncognitive skills and boost student outcomes.
Scavenger Hunt
The student enjoyed learning about the library's organization and resources from the student handbook and calendar. They found the handbook especially useful as it covered topics from conduct to grading policies and managing time. The calendar clearly outlined important dates for each term such as dropping classes and exams. The scavenger hunt also helped the student learn about campus activities and support services available, such as tutoring at the Learning Resources center. Overall, the student found the assigned research helpful.
Portfolio
Nancy Stringfellow's goal is to earn her registered nursing degree and Bachelor's in Nursing to become a nurse practitioner. She plans to complete these degrees at the University of North Texas and eventually open her own family practice. While the process seems nerve-wracking, Nancy is excited about thinking about her future career and achieving her educational goals.
W martin portfolio presentation
Wanda Martin enjoyed assignments that helped her learn about herself and her learning habits. She found the scavenger hunt and discussions on metacognition and stress most helpful. Favorite journal entries explored dealing with inner critics, building confidence, and controlling negative thoughts. Wanda felt week 2 was most beneficial as it revealed her strengths and weaknesses, and taught her that truly understanding concepts requires time and research. Key lessons she will carry forward include improving her thinking through metacognition, optimizing learning using cognitive principles, and better organizing her time and studying from journal reflections. Wanda's self-assessment scores increased in all areas from the beginning to the end of the course, showing growth in self-motivation, self-management, belief
How Adults Learn
The document discusses how adults learn and strategies for effective training. It addresses the impact of environmental factors like lighting and distractions on learning. It also covers cognitive load theory and techniques for managing cognitive load like using diagrams, examples, and separating content delivery. The document discusses stress and its effects on learning. It also briefly touches on using storytelling techniques and developing intellectual standards and traits in learners.
How Adults Learn
The document provides guidance on creating effective adult learning programs. It discusses that adult brains are designed for survival in unstable environments, meaning adults learn best when solving real-world problems. The document then outlines its D4M2 method for developing adult learning programs, which stands for Define, Design, Develop, Deliver, Manage, and Measure. It provides tips for each step, such as understanding your learners, designing interactive 10-minute lessons, developing meaningful content, delivering engaging lessons, managing programs effectively, and measuring long-term adoption rather than short-term outputs. The overall message is that effective adult education facilitates discovery and problem-solving rather than direct teaching, in order to mirror how adult brains naturally learn.
How do adults learn
This document discusses various topics related to how adults learn, including brain development and function, memory, learning styles, attention span, and accelerated learning. It provides information on how the brain works, how we remember and forget, and factors that influence learning like stress and emotions. It also discusses the three levels of memory (sensory, short-term, and long-term), different learning styles (visual, auditory, kinesthetic), the average adult attention span of 15-20 minutes, and techniques for making learning memorable like teaching others or using audio/visual aids.

Kolb Cycle
The document discusses how adults learn through experience by reviewing concepts to gain clarity and expertise, and adjusting their understanding by getting involved and taking ownership while telling others about what they have learned.
How adults learn tutor training
This document discusses three theories of adult learning: Malcolm Knowles' theory of andragogy, Carl Rogers' person-centered approach, and Paulo Freire's theory of transformative learning. Knowles emphasized that adults are self-directed and draw on life experiences in learning. Rogers placed importance on empathy and relevance to learners' needs. He also saw learning to learn as important. Freire viewed learning as a social act aimed at liberation, using dialogue between learner and teacher to understand problems and construct meaning.
Adult Learner
This presentation explores how adults learn during the three stages of adulthood: young adult (18 - college), medium age (post college - mid-30's), and middle age through seniors. The information examines the differences as well as the many similarities. The presentation also demonstrates the differences between Generation X and Y.
How adults learn
This document summarizes Malcolm Knowles' theory of andragogy, or adult learning. It outlines six key characteristics of adult learners: they are autonomous, self-directed learners who draw on life experiences; they are goal-oriented and want learning to be relevant; and they are practical and need to respectfully voice their opinions. The document also identifies six factors that motivate adult learning: social relationships, external expectations, social welfare, personal advancement, escape or stimulation, and cognitive interest.
Train The Trainer
An overview of principles and skills for those training adults in such topics as Diversity or other workplace topics.
How Do Adults Learn
The document discusses principles of andragogy, or adult learning theory, including key assumptions put forth by Malcolm Knowles. It outlines six assumptions of andragogy: that adults need to know why they are learning something; see themselves as self-directed learners; draw on prior life experiences; are ready to learn things that help them cope with real-life situations; are problem-centered in their orientation; and are internally, rather than externally, motivated to learn. It also discusses how these assumptions differ from traditional pedagogy and should influence the facilitator's role and design of learning activities for adult students.
Kolb learning
David Kolb developed a theory of experiential learning that describes a four-stage learning cycle of concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. Kolb also proposed four distinct learning styles - diverging, assimilating, converging, and accommodating - based on how people combine the processing of information (concrete or abstract) and the acquisition of information (active experimentation or reflective observation). Each learning style has strengths in different phases of the learning cycle and prefers different learning environments.
Adult learning theory principles and practice
Obtain an overview of adult learning theory (andragogy) and learn how Gagne's nine events of instruction can be modified with adult learning theory in mind. Some critiques of the theory are also presented.
4 Learning styles by Kolb
This document outlines the four main learning styles identified in Kolb's learning styles theory: activist, reflector, theorist, and pragmatist. The activist learns by doing activities like brainstorming and role-playing. The reflector learns by observing and thinking, preferring activities like questionnaires and feedback. The theorist learns by understanding theories behind actions through models and stories. The pragmatist learns by applying ideas in real-world practice through case studies and problem-solving. The document provides strengths and weaknesses of each style.
Learning styles (power point)
The document discusses different learning styles, including the visual learning style. It describes the VAK model which categorizes learners as visual, auditory, or kinesthetic based on how they receive and process information. Visual learners tend to observe things like pictures, demonstrations, and films in order to improve their knowledge. They understand written instructions better than oral ones and use highlighting, color coding, mind maps and other visual techniques to memorize information.
