In this module, I learned how sharing an instructor’s qualifications, professional experience, and relevant achievements can establish credibility and build students’ trust. I also learned that authority is strengthened through clear communication, subject knowledge, and consistent support for students.
I intend to apply this by including a brief professional introduction in my courses and explaining how my experience connects to the learning objectives. I will also share practical examples, set clear expectations, and provide constructive feedback. My goal is to help students feel confident in my guidance and comfortable asking questions and participating.
