Working title (thanks, John!)

CUSTOMIZING KOLB: A NEW EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING MODEL
TO ENHANCE ADULT LEARNING IN GROUPS

What's in a word? Or a title?

Need to choose a title for my dissertation. I know this is working backwards, but it will help me edit.

I don't want to go into instructional design literature right now. And I want this to focus on learning, rather than teaching.

REFINING A GROUP-CENTERED, EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING MODEL

OF INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN TO ENHANCE ADULT LEARNING

Or

DEVELOPING/REFINING/EXPLORING A NEW/PROPOSED EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING MODEL TO ENHANCE ADULT LEARNING IN GROUPS


So today, this is my choice:


EXPLORING A NEW EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING MODEL

TO ENHANCE ADULT LEARNING IN GROUPS


But, as we all know, a colon is required:


EXPLORING KOLB: A NEW EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING MODEL

TO ENHANCE ADULT LEARNING IN GROUPS


or


REVISITING KOLB: A NEW EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING MODEL

TO ENHANCE ADULT LEARNING IN GROUPS


What do you think?
