Student utilization

As adult learners it is often difficult to get them involved with the learning outcomes. A tool that I utilize is the establishment of a student daily activity wherein the students are asked a simple question or asked to provide a statement about the upcoming learning session. For an example; Bill, tomorrow please be prepared to open our class with a quote regarding the learning outcome listed as number 1. At the start of the next session, Bill is then expected to interact with the learning presentation providing such requested data. In case Bill is too shy or absent, you as the instructor should have a back-up plan to cover potential dead class time due to Bill's absence. For me this involves the student in the learning outcomes and helps to solidify the course learning outcomes. I take this even further by asking some of the more advanced students to project this out towards the later portions of the course and challenge them to in turn guide the direction of the course presentation content.
