Comment on Adam Leffell's post: every student is different says a lot. You need to find out what makes them tick when it comes to the classroom setting.
It is very important to understand students on an individual level to gain a better understanding of the teaching style they will be more receptive to.
Teaching case vs class is a powerful concept because linking the material to personal experiences enhances engagement of the students. I also never thought about the power of ego-status as an extrinsic student need until this course. I often push to be ambitious but never think about the social reward outcome that can be the driving factor for student success.
Understanding my student group, which may involve a variety of ages and life experiences that can add to the learning content and perspectives.
Lived experiences contribute to the adlut learner's grasp of material and motivation to succeed.
i learned how to understand student perspective, how to use life experiences to help understand circumstances that a student may be in..
I have learned to pay attention to all the students, and if i see one falling behind, Find out what is going on and try to send them to the department that will be able to help them , so they can stay focased on finishing their education.
As a result of completing this module, I feel more equipped with regards to how I can accentuate the significance of having students both share and incorporate their unique experiences and histories into their work.
Understanding each student's perspective helps to best educate them.
Communication and understanding is key. Knowing more about background and learning styles is something I'm working on.
Students of all ages have different from each other. They have their own personal problems and fears. Its up to the instructor to reconize their wants and needs
Good reading material and I like the career exploration part. I believe we really need to assess the classroom and adapt our teaching style to the needs of the students. Just last semester I had students in class in a range of 18-56 years old. One of the students never used a computer before. So I had to create groups and assigned more advanced students to help students that struggled with technology.
What I take from this course will help me to relate to diverse students with different backgrounds and life experiences. I will be able to Identify the students needs, help students with impersonal problems, and be a support system for students.
help me to understand students better and from that how that student needs the information to be presented so they can retain the info
Every student that walks into class is carrying so much into that room. ... unique experiences, worries, doubts, wit, perspective. It is so important to remember that when I am working to motivate, encourage and draw out the best from them!
Every new class I start I will introduce myself and have them go around and do the same. I learn all about them as a person and there goals. I also like to meet with students one on one to just talk and see why they joined the course and talk more on a personal level so they know i am here to support them.
Student needs both in and outside the classroom must be heard, even if I cannot change the issue.
This course is helpful to handle all students needs. I learnt a new scenarios that are used to help students to be success in their studying program. It is important to understand student needs because it will assist in the retention process.
Discussing students goals are important because you can use this to encourage them to continue studying.
It is essential to know that Pause is lectures and demonstrations are needed for Understanding Checks.Also the External and Internal Support Systems for a Student in this course was helpful .
