Question: While reviewing this week's Learning Resources, identify the specific ways to encourage adult learners to make connections between their prior experiences and current learning. What variables affect motivation and learning outcomes? As an instructor, what can you do to support your students' learning? Select a specific topic of instruction that is professionally interesting/relevant to you and a learning environment in which this instruction might occur. Briefly describe the subject matter and environment of your example. Describe one example of how you might facilitate an adult learner to construct a connection between the knowledge being acquired and that learner's personal experiences. Be specific in your discussion while considering expertise, empathy, enthusiasm, clarity, and cultural influences [the five pillars or characteristics of a motivating instructor from Wlodkowski and Ginsberg (2017)].
