Relationships - classroom discussions to hallway interactions to recommendation letters - are more important to teaching success than slideshows and droning lecture material will ever be.
That's my take on this module.
This section emphasized the importance of writing and how it will help the student to learn the material through the interaction and evaluation of the instructor.
Help the student by encouraging them to move from dependent learning to more critical thinking and creativity on their part in the learning process.
Very important.
extremely good
Soft skills are very important to teaching.
more in depth difference between soft skills, hard skills and workplace behavior
Soft skills influences your career.
I've learned simple ways such as letting students choose their own lab groups and seats then later assigning them for them. This should help with their adaptability.
I liked the idea of having students use their smart phones to help with time management. Everything else was pretty obvious stuff.
