So you have finished the lecture and you have asked your planned questions. Try asking, "What are your questions?" instead of, "Do you have any questions?"  Open ended questions are more effective than closed ended "yes" or "no" questions.

I have learned how to continue my education as an educator. I am currently finishing my Doctor of Nursing Practice. I believe that once we finish our degrees, it is up to us to continue learning from our students and peers. I will search out new learning opportunities, such as certifications, in the future. 

It is very important to screen your audience (students) and be prepared to accommodate the different learning styles. Also, be receptive to any students who come to you and express their learning style. 

It is important to incorporate as many different deliveries as you can to reach as many learning styles as possible.

Understanding the different ways of learning will help with explaining lecture and keeping students engaged.

It made me think more about the various aspects that influence the perception of you as an instructor and how to model professionalism to both students and staff! 

What I have learned is making the first day important so that you can get your students involved and what to expect throughout the day.

The ability to distinguish when I am using passive vs active voice. Active voice tends to provide more focus or clarity but is also more narrow. Passive is seems to be more broad spectrum and addresses more, this is why its commonly used in procedures, processes and policies than in direct communication. 

 

Also, the general education facilitators evaluations was an important element to me, this is where the learners "learn" how to interact orally or in a written manner. 

What I have learned from this is coming in early and speaking with the students so I can get to know them. Making sure I have a proper time to plan my day out so I have checklist and an idea of what I have planned for the day. 

From this course I learned how to speak professionally and how to dress professionally.  I also learned to be there before class to make sure that if students need me that I am here to help them with any problems.
