Abstract	Enrollment in graduate programs continues to rise at a steady pace in the United States with a 9% increase over the past 10 years, a pace that is expected to continue through 2026. Among these students, 56% are "adult learners" between the ages of 25 through 39 years. With this in mind, instructors need to be mindful of the unique needs that these students have as they pursue advanced education. These learners require and are motivated by classroom experiences that are interactive, draw upon their professional and personal experiences, and through which they partner with others in the knowledge creation process. By leveraging adult learning theories and instructional approaches from the K-12 environment, the authors present classroom activities for adult learners that meet their unique needs. Examples are provided for how the activities can be used in a variety of disciplines. (As Provided).
