Technology Integration for Adult Learners

 In ED 540, my students have been hard at work gathering valuable insights on technology integration for adult learners. They reviewed a research article, analyzing how technology is reshaping adult education. They’ve used these findings to design digital research posters that summarize their key takeaways. These posters are a visual showcase of how technology is being integrated into adult learning environments, focusing on real-world studies that highlight the challenges and successes in this area.  #AdultLearning #EdTech #StudentWork
