I definitely see this in my students. They want to know why they are being taught certain things and tend to absorb information more readily when we can also have a tangible or hands-on experience at the same time.

I especially liked the specificity of Havighurst's theories; in that in each age range, our thought processes, perspectives and motivations change.

Our school has a mix of younger and older adults. I feel that each group has their own skills and motivations, but they tend to pull each other along with their individual strengths. 

Allowing different learning styles for students will help students all feel engaged by targeting their learning styles.

Intelligence can be broken up into seven categories, linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, body kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal. 

Carl Rodgers mentions in this course that students learn by doing and applying their skills.

Adult learners can bring life experiences into the classroom.

Prior to this course I would do a learning style assessment on my students. In career education now there is a wide range of ages that come into our school with a wide variety of educational backgrounds. I have learned through this course that perhaps we should focus more brain learning than learning style.

Guiding the students through problem solving steps will help them to develop this valuable skill and will lead to them carrying on this ability in their future career situations.

Often forgotten about is the power of reflection. Taking the time to think (and to think outside of the box), be creative, ask the right questions, all help to grow problem solving skills.
