:There is a Chinese proverb regarding teaching that states, "Tell me, I'll forget; show me, I'll remember; involve me, I'll understand." As a teacher of working adults, I strive constantly to involve them in activities and exercises that not only connect to my students' professional lives but also are engaging in and of themselves. I show them how writing appropriately is critical when applying for a loan or grant, submitting a resume, responding to clients' emails, etc.; we discuss how a piece of paper with text on it actually serves as the very first impression they will make on a client, cutomer, or potential employer.
