Adult learners and teachers who learn with the children.

I have been fortunate to attend Professional Learning opportunities where I have listened to  highly regarded researchers and theorists. I bring home learning including the vision that adult learners attending seminars learn best through direct experience, through active involvement and firsthand participation.  I have also learned that what adults remember from a seminar is what they 'think' while they are attending that seminar. Well, I think, adult learners learn best when they 'think of it' themselves (I think).

So, my question is this - I have adult learners around me  ( I am lucky that way)  how can I empower them to 'think of it themselves?'
