This presentation will address the several and varied benefits of engaging older adults via literature lessons in an active group learning environment and will offer methodology to use the gifts of older adults to improve cognitive ability. As a professional I have taught students of every age but the most enlightened and appreciative students have been those over sixty due to their life experiences and wisdom. They represent the group most engaged and experienced and can draw on that engagement and those experiences for a deeper understanding of literature eg Shakespeare. In this presentation I will discuss/explain the methods used to engage older adults in an exciting supportive way.
