Adult Learning: The Easy Way!

Adult learners are a fast-growing segment of the millions of students pursuing higher education. These adult learners are different than those students who enter higher education directly out of high school. Because they are older, they have more to offer to their instructors, their fellow students, and the world in general. They also have a greater appreciation of the advantages and personal satisfaction which derive from advanced learning. At the same time, adult learners have some very real challenges, difficulties, and fears to overcome as they re-enter the world of education after an absence of many years. The authors of this book analyze these challenges, difficulties, and fears and offer common sense solutions that will help adult learners enjoy and embrace their return to the classroom.
