syllabus

syllabus are very important

Is it a first-year teaching thing??

I am feeling very compassionate about enhancing the curriculum, as well as the presentation of the shop by upgrading the booths material making cleaning, routine Maintenace and organization a more prominent aspect of the class. in the max knowledge course about walking through the classroom attempting to put yourself in the student's shoes. imagining seeing the room for the first time made me think of a small business that wants the potential customer to trust them to produce a certain service or product with an enhanced level of precision, quality, and all-around good business attributes. Yet said business doesn't think it's important to have front lobby clean and organized with displays of quality production or awards. the first thing the customer sees is the face of the small business, and we all know about first impressions really setting the tone. i just really hope I can get some help with sponsorships and material donations. I've worked for many companies that have endless amounts of scrap metal that I would love to stockpile to keep my students engaged and learning new test of what to expect from various companies in hopes all my alumni's will return with jobs in the field they are learning. thanks for reading.

group projects

Group projects are so important. Include students evaluating their peers and a self-evaluation of participation. The knowledge students gain during the project will stick. Students have individual strengths they can contribute. Presentation to class helps prepare them for professional roles.
