The use of technology in adaptive learning is important in that the student can complete the program at their own speed and any time of the day or night that their schedule allows.

I have been teaching for about 7 years now and realize that no matter how much experience you have as an instructor, you must continue to improve your knowledge of the subject you are teaching.

I have found that you can set the atmosphere for the quarter on this first day. If you give the students information on the course subject and your expectations on how you will handle homework, classroom activities and exams the students will relax more and learn more.
