Returning Adult Student: Stress Practical Benefits of Material

Video Transcript

Now something else that you want to do when you have returning students, really you want to do it anyway with the temperature of the students that we see in the classroom today, and that is stress the practical benefits of what you're teaching, especially returning students are more than willing to learn theory or a subject or a concept or idea if they know how they can apply it and how they can use it in the future. So I feel like it's real important for you to take whatever subject it is that you're teaching, and as instructors we all know that there is validity in everything that we teach, but how can we help the student, especially the returning student, see beyond the obvious, and the obvious is the actual theory itself what we're actually teaching in the classroom. Howe can they take that information and apply it to their other classes. How can they apply it to their jobs? How can they apply it to their life? So find a way to teach the material and then reference it to practical application in real life.
