Planning Instruction for Adult Learners

An immensely practical work, now in its third edition, Planning Instruction for Adult Learners shows you how to analyze the characteristics of adult learners, formulate realistic goals and objectives, plan the sequence of topics to be taught, select appropriate instructional strategies, and the kinds of materials to be used. Equally important, this work explores the challenges of evaluating students' learning and evaluating the instruction provided by the teacher. Book jacket.
