treating students with dignity and respect and more Importantly acknowledging the unique learning needs of non traditional students will contribute to their success

I talked to one of my colleges today about observing a class where they combine two different levels of learners to enhance the course learning outcome.

The Maxknowledge allows instructors to take initiative to be sure that each student understand the assignments and work to meet their goals for their career.  Students need to have self-discipline and take responsibilty for their actions. The instructors play a big part in being and staying positive with their body language so that the student will study in a comfortable environment.

The value of student impact is key.

Students have the ability to explore careeer choices and selecting their career path is meaningful to them.  The student has control of their future.

I know I can rely on student success if the students get up and relay what they know to us, for example, telling the class what the pathway of blood through the heart is.

This gives other students motivation to learn and better feedback! Competition is healthy and reliable.

It is important to show encouragement, concern, and empathy for each student.  They are on a path of self improvment, and we should facilitate that.

Empowerment thru motivation is well and powerful phrase. it can go a long way because when you are confident of your teaching methods you tranfer that confidence in learning to your students.

As a novice clinical insructor it is a challenge learning the content of the work and delivering the materials effectively.  But form this lesson I have learnt the factors to keep students motivated and delivering clear and accurate insrtuctions is very important.My action plan is to use more varied activities, not to make students feel insecure .  Now being aware of the inrinsic factors that motivate students I will focus on these things.

Both learning behaviors have a common goal to learn at their own pace with the intentions of gaining self security and accomplish some sort of recognination , it can ether be from within or a public recognition.

The course gives great content and ideas for encouraging more involvement by the students. It does also outline the importance the the instructor has in making the students feel empowered by their learning.  Definitely worth the time and useful for helping understand how to help the students be more successful in attaining their carreer goals through education.

Encouragement can follow failure or success. 

The more you know about your subject matter, the more confident you are to speak on the content in front of students.

Students sense confidence and nervousness. I overcame nervousness during my undergraduate experience by over preparing for everything and it really helped me to succeed.

Of course, there will always be challenges in every aspect of teaching and learning. As long as you plan ahead and think about many contingencies, you should be fine.

This training has been very helpful in giving tips such as waiting to give the instructor time to respond better and also motivating students with rewards from time to time but not overdoing it and helping students maintain security and autonomy in different ways.

great philosopher Nietzsche once said, “he who has a why can bear almost any how.” 

 I love this quote and easily apply it to how I practice nursing and how I aim to teach the nursing students.

Action plans are very motivating to students' learning because they increase both students' security and autonomy and can motivate students to succeed to the highest level of achieving their goals.

I found this video very helpful. I have often felt unfulfilled when I don't complete a lesson I planned. Now I am able to make adjustments and be more flexible. The process acts as an assessment for the present class and a guideline for the next.

Motivating students, being enthusiastic about the content, showing empathy, and showing the students I care about their success in the course are positive ways to enhance the learning experience and retention.

Challenges in remembering the student's names will be a task that I want to overcome.  I am good with faces but connecting the names is difficult.  I will have to associate the student's life experiences and study their profile before the course begins.  This is one of the examples used in the youtube video. 

I learned al lot in this class. The key is encouraging the students by allowing them to integrate their experiential knowledge with the content of the course. In this way, it increase theri retention of the cours content. It also allows the student to build up confidence when educators give them immediate feedback. My action plan is to learn more about strategies in allowing the students to do this without affecting the course discussion time.
