Of all wars to have been conducted by the USA, the war on drugs is the least promising, with government and law enforcement agencies fighting it in a losing battle.

In the context of learning, adults come to a class with certain knowledge and understanding about the subject being taught.

It is a good thing to have knowledge as an adult but not too good for an adult-teacher. For a teacher, adult student’s preconceived ideas hinder the teaching-learning process of striking common ground, creating group interest and establishing key goals for a class. Students with varied educational back grounds and experiences learn mostly as individuals rather than as a group. Such scenarios ...
