I am happy that I selected this course. The points it made early on about how gamification is not going anyway and that it is best to lean into it are spot on. Also, the ideas presented made a lot of sense and would be a great way to engage students and really make learning come alive. This course provided a lot of good ideas and I will be reflecting on how to bring the content to life via gaming activities. 

Problems will arise no matter the time or day for the students, and we are to listen to said students who need it most to help them feel encouraged to keep going for themselves.

Modeling positive behavior, attitude and actions will keep the students excited about training to enter the field. When you are willing to share information ,your professional skill with your students they will see you as a module a person in the field.

By allowing the client to express their autonomy. You will be able to target their individual intrinsic motivations and help them create a driving purpose.

When a student is irate how would that be handled in the classroom?

It is very important to keep Your Focus on the Students because students become bored very quickly if there is no variety or change in  the course.Adults attention span is 10 to 15 minutes long.Make sure to have variety and surprises within the lesson/presentation .
