I think that the course was great. There were so many important strategies effective techniques to utilize that will enhance the instructor's teaching skills. Classroom management is crucial to having students to gain the knowledge and understanding they need to be successful in their studies.

In my opinion Open ended questions encourage more critical thinking.

First of all analyze the problem. Write down what is given, then start thinking all steps are to be taken to solve the problems. I'm math instructor and use logic and problem solving in math.

Problem solving is an integral part in College Math that involves problem solving using venn diagram . I enjoy teaching problem soving . I also learnt a lot from this course.

It is good to know that there are other educators in the world around us that believe Critical Thinking is an integral part of the learning process.I'm teaching College Mathematics where we use critical thinking and problem solving.

Critical Thinking is made of a combination mainly: self-directed thinking and discipline. In everyday language critical thinking is thinking outside the box.

It is important to specify your grading system in the syllabus and give the syllabus on the first day of your class. I think is better to create a grading system in percentage then point system.The students know their grade in percentage.Keep informing the students about their grades like after mid term.

I agree pretest is a good tool to know where new students stand in the class.The instructor can work according with students.Status assessments are also important, this tells the progress of a student.

I found 10/20/30 rule for developing Power Point Presentation is very good and helpful.The common mistakes that instructors make when using chalk/white board can be avoided after studying this course.

Field trips are important.You can know your students more closely and they can prepare worksheets on things ,the instructor wants them to focus on.
