Hello!  Sorry to be getting a late start in the discussion.  My name is Allison Conner and I am a graduate student in the Adult Education program at East Carolina University.  I am currently unemployed, but my past work experience has included working with Adult Learners at a community college.  So far the discussion on student involvement and critical thinking has been very interesting.  I think student involvement is when students are actively participating in classroom activities and putting in effort into their work. It can be very frustrating when you have a classroom full of students who do not want to be involved in anyway.  I look forward to hearing more about these topics from others!
 
Sincerely,
Allison Conner
