Confidential Interview From High School Thesis

Following the presentations, the conference participants were invited to discuss the presentations. In the afternoon, however, an electronic team-decision center was used to identify successful models for collaberation, and ways in which the Sloan Foundation could become involved in the integration. In fact, it was the electronic team-decision center, which recorded the data and suggestions offered by the program participants, which was used to evaluate the program, which was evaluated by the Sloan Foundation, which funded the conference. Upon evaluation, the only problems that were identified included the size of the event, which was intended to host over 50, and length, which was originally intended to last over one day. The program planner identifies the sponsor's need to cut budget for these two problems. Thus, based on this program planning and others, this program planner, adult education expert, and consumer of adult education, has used adult education theories and principals into her work. In the aforementioned event, she used the principals of incorporating all the participants as both teachers and students. In the rest of her program planning endeavors, this program planner has used the models of Tyler, Houle, Knowles, Sork, Caffarella, Cervero, and Wolson in combination in order to plan effective programs. In addition, the program planner understands that her personal values must play a role in the programs she plans, and one of those values, building trust among stakeholders is of greatest importance.
