Abstract: What does a lesson built for student learning look like when learners come to programs with limited or interrupted formal education? Students who lack home language literacy and exposure to a formal classroom setting need explicit training about "classroom culture." Instructors need to use systematic scaffolding and other research-based techniques to effectively equip learners with transferrable skills for tomorrow's workforce and civic engagement.
