EQ relates to soft skills and IQ relates to Hard Skills

Soft skills are so important to all areas of careers.

I learned that the classroom needs to simulate the healthcare environment more so that the experience they have in class will develop their skill sets towards the culture they will be working with.

As an educator, it's important to have soft skills such as patience, creativity and flexibility. 

I am computer short bus, and I am always having issues with not being able to get into things or just have trouble navigating through a portal, so I know first hand the pains of the computer. But on the other hand I would not be able to do my job without it.

Life long learning is a forever thing and the more we learn or know makes us more productive in life and in the workplace.

My students do 70% of their work as groups of 3 or 4 and the other 30% is done on there own so they get the team feeling as well as independence.

Writing is a important aspect of our way of communicating to each other or about a topic, There are many forms and styles of writing , For example writing a letter to grandma is not the same as writing an essay on global warming. but what makes me stop and wonder is when students have a learning disability that has not been addressed yet.

Critical thinking is in effect trouble shooting a problem and being able to come up with a solution to solve it, This is why I always answer a question with a question that makes the student think about the path to getting the right answer.

I have already implemented a Time Mangement strategy.  It is a course requirement that each student complete a weekly Time Mangement Plan for studying.  I will be continuing this course requirement in all my classes.  I will be evaluating and revising the plan as necessary.
