Common sense and experience tells me that this research applies equally well, if not better, to adult learners.

What’s the best way to share learning objectives with your participants? I introduce them verbally and visually as part of my opening, just after my hook. I then refer to them in the middle of the session and again near the end of the session. These reminders provide participants an opportunity to check their progress and adjust their learning behaviors. How do you share your learning objectives with your students?
