being prepared

you must be prepared. it showes how professionals do work

PREPARTION

Being prepared for each subject or in my case each module preparation is a key to conducting a successful training session or course.

Keeping students alert

I have found it helpful to move about quite a bit in the classroom and give short stretch breaks when students are tired.

Explaining your instructional style

I have found it helpful to explain my instructional style in the first class session

Planning

I am open to any planning hints

Better A/V Discipline

The schools I work at have spent the money to install high quality A/V systems, which are great for presenting a variety of multimedia formats such as PowerPoint, DVDs, Audio. The problem is that they have not thought through the use by instructors of the equipment. I'd like to see some professionalism applied to the use of A/V equipment in schools.

Identifing What Works

I think as teachers we need to be creative with how we deliver content. Even students who do not have a learnign disability will repsond to varied instructional techniques and learning supports. I also think this applies to assessments as well. If a student's grade is based soley on one type of assessment, they may score disproportionatley high or low depending on how they take to that type of assessment.

Diversity as an obvious benefit

I feel that all students are diverse, individual. We need to remember to challange our students. If they come to class feeling that they can use crutches than they will. Not all students are motivated to learn. As teachers we have to push them to succeed. After they succeed they then push themselves to succeed again. Many career students have never been very successful in academic settings but that does not mean they can not be!

Repetition

When repeating concepts, we as teachers need to gauge when are students are ready for us to move on. How do you balance those students who are ready to move on and those who have not yet grasped the concept?

Setting the tone

I think it is important to get the class started on the right note. I learned allot of techniques to accomplish this task. Thanks

Using lecture note cards

I don’t like the idea of being stuck in front Of a podium having to read my lecture notes from A Book During lecture. Having notes on 3x5 cards Is a great idea for me to be able to move around The class room and engage the students. I will Definitely bring that idea back to the class Room with Me. Thank You!

On top of the Game!

To stay on top, an instructor must be prepared for the unexpected as well as the unexpected. One must adapt to changing environments. Different student behavior & attitudes should have as little impact on the progress of your course plan if your on top of your Game!
