The document discusses key aspects of adult learning. It notes that adults are motivated to learn when it satisfies their needs and interests. Experience is an important source of learning for adults who need to be self-directing. Effective teaching assists discovery, builds on past experiences, and involves participation. Adults need to understand how, what, and why they are learning. Learning is enhanced when adults can apply it themselves and direct their own educational experiences.
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.

Teaching Adults: What trainers need to knowDanielleHazen1
Teaching adults isn’t
like teaching children. What we learn in childhood forms the foundation of what we learn as
adults. Our life experiences can add to that, thus creating a substantial
reservoir of information.
Developing insight into how adults learn helps trainers become more
successful.
Many people appear to object to the approximation of a 'culture of learning.'
Every formal education institution has a culture of its own, which imitates a system of implicit and explicit beliefs about learning.
Learning also has a cultural dimension that is the manner we see and perceive education which may shift depending on situations and environment.
A culture of teaching and learning is collaboratively constructed by students and teachers. It is about their expectations of 'what should be known' and 'who should experience it.'

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Editor's Notes
The Adult Learner by Cathy Abraham Credit to: PA Pathways training manual
Ask/Think about: “What is learning?”; “What is the learning process?”; “What is the difference between teaching and learning?”
How can learning be measured?
Seeing value in what they are learning is critical…. I.e. “buy in”. Basically, adults want and need to be treated as adults. Similarities in learning in children and adults?
Acknowledge and respect the knowledge and experiences of adult learners. Activity: If using this as a training, in small groups, have participants list what kinds of things adults want to know about what they are going to learn.
How/What/Why Think about it from your own perspective…. Isn’t this what you want to know going into a learning situation?
Ever know anyone that has quit learning and growing? Ever know someone “older” that embraces learning new things? Activity: If presenting this as a training, in small groups, have participants make a list of specific things that people think are important to adult learners.
How can you link what you are teaching to real-life experiences? (What do we all like to get from a conference… things we can take back and immediately use!) If learners can make connections to the concepts you are presenting this ensures a higher degree of understanding and retention. Adult learners want information that they can use. Also… if they can relate what you are saying to life experiences that they’ve had, the concepts you are presenting will make sense to them. Encourage learners to relay connections they’ve made. Real-life stories are remembered longer by learners.
How can you give staff members/learners some control over the learning process? When people have input, you will get more “buy in.” It conveys respect when participants have some say in the process.
Learners rely on their frame of reference. (Sometimes when people are resistant to classes or training it is based on their previous experiences – school was not a positive experience for everyone.) How can you draw from participant’s past experiences? Incorporating the experiences and knowledge of participants conveys respect for what they know and their skills. Often adult learners have much to offer, building upon what is being covered.
How can you involve learners? (How much did you learn from college instructors that simply lectured?) We know this concept to be true with children! Asking questions and involving participants will assist you in assessing how much information they are understanding and retaining. Activities also “break up” training… and can make it fun. Breaking up into small groups for activities encourages the socialization process, and will solicit participation from some learners that may not speak up in the larger group.
How can you create an atmosphere of comfort, respect and acceptance? (Have you ever been in a classroom that was stiflingly hot? Could you focus?) Learners need to feel comfortable, safe, and accepted in order to participate… both physically and emotionally. Although we are used to sitting in child-sized chairs, they are not conducive to an hour or more of sitting!
Adults like to have some say in what it is that they are learning. Often we can ‘walk them through’ the process of choosing an area they could benefit from additional information on. (“What is your biggest challenge?…”) Encourage or help them to set continued learning goals. How can you help them to be self-directed in their learning?
Reinforce attempts at new behavior and any successes. How can you help to ensure success with new behaviors or skills? Do participants feel like they can do or achieve what it is we are teaching?
Assess current knowledge Define what is of interest &/or of value to participants Recap what was learned (after)
Thoughts on this quote? Is it true, based on your experiences? How does it relate to the information presented? CAbraham/2005
