I am currently practicing many of the mentioned streamlined grading process which eliminates spending to much time in the process.
I like the scantron grading method the best and it allows time for other reviews and assessments.

The importance of managing your time and prioritizing events will be a great stress reducer. It has for me.
You can control your own time by adhering to a flexible but prioritized time schedule both in and out of the class room and out.
I am a great advocate of efficient list or checklists. It really keeps me on tract and relatively stress free.

I am in total agreement that soft skills should dominate an instructors interaction within a classroom.
The management of emotions, being an effective team player, common sense, and that positive attitude will increase your value as a instructor.
I find no fault with the presentation.
This instrutor development course met my needs in improving classroom learning diagnostic skills.
Especially interesting, were the assessment of individual learning styles in maximizing student interes and motivation.The Dunn learning styles were particulary usesful in diagnosing students preferences.

Resources avaiable to insgtructors now provide us with an array of insteructional aids that complement lecture and allow the students to engage in new and revelent technologies.
This course, ED 109, was very instructional in my reevaluating student motivation and promoting active participation in a class room experience.
Mature learners are self-motivated for the most part, and seem to work very well independently without close supervision. They tend to have very high attendance rates, and come to class prepared.
Each ED course provides a unique opportunity to leanr new and tried techniques in class room learning.
