Getting Buy-in


Getting Buy-in is always a desirable goal. To do this, it is good to keep in mind that People Do Not Argue with Their Own Data. People are more likely to strongly believe something if they arrive at the idea themselves (or at least think they are arriving at it themselves.)
Presenting structured activities that generate the adult students' ideas, concepts, or techniques will facilitate learning more effectively than simply giving them information to remember.

Getting buy-in is important – perhaps essential.
