Using Learning Science Strategies to Enhance Teaching Practices and Empower Adult Learners
Rehak, Kimberly M.; McGinty, Jacqueline M.
American Association for Adult and Continuing Education, Paper presented at the American Association for Adult and Continuing Education 2022 Conference (Milwaukee, WI, Oct 11-14, 2022)
By leveraging research-backed strategies from the learning sciences, adult educators can help learners develop effective study habits that lead to deeper learning. This paper will discuss the harm in perpetuating neuromyths and how doing so can lead to negative outcomes for learners. Then, six strategies will be shared to help adult educators build and implement evidence-backed research practices in their classrooms. The strategies should lead to better study habits, more knowledge retention, and quicker retrieval speeds. Additionally, employing these techniques can lead to adult learners' building self-efficacy and confidence, which are essential to learner success. [For the full proceedings, see ED631897.]
