About me
Recently I was a motorcycle technician, but have decides to go back to MMI, not to learn more but to become an instructor there. I have had no formal training in instructing, just a 9 week training program I need to attend at MMI. In doing so I am going thru this CBT course, and it has taught me alot. Before I went to school for motorcycle mechanics I actually went to college for and associates in CIS.

I did not realize the amount of behind the scene work there is. Going from teaching in front of a class of 30 -60 students to an online class is very different. The need to view, review, and keep in the know of everything seems the same as traditional classroom settings, but the more I look at it the more of a learning curve is required to teach an online class.
At our institute, we have a class for student that are dealing with the general public and customer service. The information that we discussed in this lesson is very similar to what we have in our curriculum for our students. It was nice to see our two curriculums align.
I am a Gen X. I never thought about different learning styles until I became an instructor. After reading the material in the training module, I would have to say that I can agree with most of it. A few things I agree with is that Gen Y doesn't not learn well with long lectures, that they do want instant gratification, they are great multitaskers, and the do question the instructor a lot. But from what I have seen in the classroom, although they are very tech savvy, they lack the drive to push themselves. Instead of wanting to learn,… >>>
