growing need to accommodate non-traditional students who have full-time jobs, part-time jobs, perhaps older than your traditionalcollege student, with life-changing events such as getting married, starting a career, or starting afamily, spawned our need to make course delivery changes. Theorist Malcolm Knowles 1discussed andragogical learning theory and how institutions who teach adults can adapt theirteaching habits within the learning environment. Knowles' concept of andragogy has beenwidely adopted by educators from various disciplines around the world. Andragogy is basedupon six assumptions: (a) self-directedness, (b) need to know, (c) use of experience in learning,(d) readiness to learn, (e) orientation to learning, and (f) internal

All levels of calculus at the university are taught in multiple sections withmultiple faculty. The courses are specific to the faculty member and there are no common examsas with the introductory physics class. The average final course grade earned by both groups intheir first math course at the university was a B-. The final course grades of the BackstageBucknell ESA 2016 participants had 2 out of 14 students earning less than a C for their finalcourse grade. In the ESA 2015 group, 3 out of 13 students received a final course grade less thanC. It is worth noting

However, students who performed active learning exercises did not exhibit betterrecall of information presented immediately after such breaks. Students who performed physicalactivity showed no difference in recall of information presented immediately after those breaks,compared to the recall of students who took no breaks. Our data suggest that learning value, notsimple activity/wakefulness, is the critical element of active learning.Introduction“Active learning” is a term used to refer to situations in which an

Similarly, under the“sweaty palms” test, if a given action, behavior or decision makes you intuitively uncomfortable– gives you sweaty palms – you should consider that unease as a symptom calling for theapplication of ethical thought.There are three additional examples in the lecturer’s deck of slides.
