for michael smith only

The Discussions in this course include several components. You may not be able to address all of these topics in a single post. You will need to plan to return to the Discussion several times during the week to weigh in on the topics. Please make sure you do so as part of both original posts as well as in replies to your classmates. Remember that your grade for the Discussion Board comprises both original postings and your contributions through replies. Both are great places to introduce new information, opinions, links, etc., and both are equally important to your grade.

In this Discussion you will be locating instructional plans or lesson plans for adult learners. Use a search engine to conduct a search for "adult education instructional plans". Then, answer each of the questions in the following Google Survey and submit your information.

Start this Discussion by completing the following Google Form:

https://docs.google.com/a/kaplan.edu/forms/d/1E2-TnjHclyNLzp-qGg_0LgkJ0B7xvKx_VcxUJmswefw/viewform

Once you have completed the Google Form and submitted your answers, you will be provided with a view of your peers’ responses. Use those responses to complete your next post.

Review your peer’s instructional plans provided after you submit your Google form and select an instructional plan you may find interesting and post the following:

1. Briefly explain the instructional plan you selected.
2. Why did you select this instructional plan?
3. List two traditional theories for adult learning that you could apply to this instructional plan.
4. List two contemporary adult learning theories for adult learning that you could apply to this instructional plan.

Once you complete your post, review your peer’s postings and open a conversation with one of your peers and each post the following:

1. What adult learning practices would you and your peer use for each of your instructional plans?
2. Why would you use those practices?
