Your Application Assignment this week is to complete both parts of the Course Project as well as add to your Strategies for Teaching Adult Learners Toolkit.

- Advice and/or insights-based on what you have learned in this course-that you would suggest for any of the people you interviewed or for the educator you observed working with adult learners
- The ways in which these interviews have influenced your thinking and practice with regard to working with adult learners and your conclusions with regard to working in a particular area or role with adult learners in the early childhood field
Part 1b: Lesson Plan (approximately 3-4 pages)
