Most of what I ahave seen jibes with what I have learned in other courses. However, some of the content did not reflect current sources in media, instructional material, assessment and evaluation. Has there been any new innovations? Perhaps what is presented represents how our educational system has become stagnated.

Perhaps, we will get to that as I progress through.

Whatever policy you establish for turning in work, stick to it.

A persons personality can impact their performance as a teacher. Be genuine.

Always important to revisit the basics education!!!

THE MAIN ISSUE OF LEARNING IN ORDER TO CORRECT UNWANTED BEHAVIORS BY MAKING THE STUDENTS PARTICIPANTS OF THE SOLUTIONS.

THE IMPORTANCE OF ACQUIRING EXPERIENCE THROUGH COMMUNITY WORK WILL HELP IN TWO VERY IMPORTANT WAYS, IT WILL HELP THE STUDENT TO LEARN AND SEE THE PRACTICALITY OF WHAT HE LEARNED AND SECONDLY IT WILL BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY BY RECEIVING HELP AND SERVICES THAT OTHERWISE THEY WOULD NOT.

PARTICIPATION IN SOLVING THE COMMUNITY'S NEEDS AND PROBLEMS WILL MAKE OF THE STUDENTS BETTER MEMBERS OF THOSE AND MAKE CHANNEL THEIR TIME INTO SOLUTIONS INSTEAD OF CREATING SOME ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS.

According to Practical Applications for Adaptive Learning (ED128) course, it is the power of Data that is fundatmental to improving the performance of individual students.  Pardon me if I believe the correct answer should still be educator, who motivates the student to use Adaptive Learning tools in the first place.

I can't agree more on promoting students' self-regulation skills in evaluating self, monitoring the progress and working on strategies to achieve final goals with some assistance from the instructor. Learning is a two-way street and students have some responsibilities too.

Preparation of course content and ability to teach to meet each student's personal learning styles is key.

I felt this course had good big picture tips to incorporate into course instruction.  My top take-aways

1. accurately assessing student's background knowledge and readiness to comprehend course material

2. break up topics into small units to allow for improved retention and comprehension of subject matter

3. vary instructional material to address a variety of learning styles.

4.  I also liked the tip on how to keep standards high in the course, as being interpreted as having higher expectations for student learning.  I.e. not that the course material is so difficult only few can master, but that I must insist… >>>

I particularly like the comment early in the class that UDL is not really something that is achieved in its entirety but is rather something of a ongoing journey towards a goal. There are some areas that I struggle to imagine a different way of having students respond - for example, if I am teaching a writing course, I need them to write. Certainly adaptive technology for disabilities is 100% fine, but the final product has to be written. On the other hand, I can see opportunities for me to do a better job with this - for example, I… >>>

I have gotten a new way to use in my lecture and practical teaching I loved the one of were I get the students to do a journal were the students can show what they learned and where they are having trouble understanding it gives me the opportunity to help the students where they need the help in .  This Also has shown me the importance of different learning methods I can relate to my job as an instructor of cosmetology and barber. It was a very enforcement information to be a better instructor for my students.

This course has given me more tools that I can use to help my students to have other ways to understand and succeed in their  career. I liked the role playing method and judging  that I can implement and improve my teaching skills. One of the method that I will implement in my  teaching skills is to give students the opportunity to to do a journal this will help me and my students to see what they understand and where they are confused this methods we'll let me help the students where they need help. I have had different challenges… >>>

I definitely Learned a lot from the course.I enjoy anything that helps hone my skills as a teacher.

I appreciate the information that was presented. Some of it is a restatement of what we already know. Having an overall Universal Design does provide a theoretical framework for our work. As I went through the module, I had the overwhelming feeling that I would almost never have the time to actually do what the module presents. Power points, multi-media, blogs, tutoring, etc. 

As faciliators, it is important to be openminded and positive about the changing learning environment in regards to the incorporation of technology into education. Social media and other online resourses are embedded within society and the growing embodiement of online learning for the future generations. 

I really enjoyed the Adaptive Learning section of Maxknowledge. I think it will help me tailor future lesson plans towards my students strengths.

I recommend the course.

Today I learned that online classes are very individualized to everyone; however, I didn''t quite understand how it should be created. I need to go back and have a third party evalute my course. 

The informations were very helpfull great learning experience. very informative

I found this course incredibly helpful in preparing and structuring course work for individuals with all different learning styles.
