Hi Dr. Jeffries, thanks for your comments!

I have found too that when students relate their own experiences and backgrounds, it not only boosts their own self confidences, but it engages other students as well. Sometimes instructors overlook what adult learners bring to the table in life experience, work background and transferable skills - maximizing these experiences and skills in the classroom or lab, as opposed to taking the approach, "let me tell you what you need to know," makes all the difference in the world in engaging students in an active learning process.

Thanks again,
