Because adult learners have unique capabilities in receiving information, CAL reverses the traditional mode of instruction delivery.
Adult learners study the content of class ahead of time.
Class time is then devoted to discussion, application, and assessment of material covered independently. The facilitator draws out the adult learner s experience and provides the academic tools with which to provide context for the adult learner s journey. Unlike traditional courses, Organizational Management courses rely heavily on the dynamics of cohort interaction and group processes to integrate and apply the learning of academic content. Dr. Mike McKenzie , Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Religion facilitates the psychology and ethics courses. Prior to the first class, adult learners receive a module for the course containing detailed instructions to guide their self-study.
