Group dynamics and team building

1. Imagine you’re a technical institute instructor accustomed to teaching a 12-week (3 hours per week) first-year auto mechanics course to young adults who are typically 19 to 30 years old. You’ve been asked to teach a shorter version of the course (6 weeks x 2 hours) in an assisted living seniors’ home to adults who are aged 55 to 70 and up. What changes would you make to course content and instructional methods?

2. Imagine you’re a health-care worker or recreation professional who’s been asked to teach a three hour session on healthy nutrition to a group of seniors at your local community centre. Describe the context (e.g., people, topic, site) and how you would present the topic (e.g., structure, methods).
