Your Learners: Hear Their Words


Module 1: Part 1 - Discovering Your Learners


Your Learners

As we begin the process of discovering your learners, please take time (approximately 12 minutes) to watch the following videos that highlight the stories of adult learners who pursued educational opportunities after failing to graduate from high school. These videos were produced by Kentucky Educational Television (KET) as a part of "Dropping Back In" Links to an external site., a series focusing on America's dropout crisis. As you listen to their stories, please reflect on the following:

    • What were the circumstances that caused these adults to drop out?
    • What obstacles did they face dropping back into formal education?
    • How did their pursuit of education as an adult offer them opportunities to improve their lives?
