What are you ideas about to instill excellence in the classroom? Give me some best practices that make you successful instructor. Thanks.

always think outside the bun when teaching to a variety of students.

Issues of time management,discipline and assessment.

Be involved in class. Participate in class discussions and ask questions. Enthusiasm is contagious. Instructors respond and teach better to an alert, attentive, and interested class in just the way a band puts on a better show for an enthusiatic crowd

It's not a good idea to guess if a student has a disability or not. Accommodations, undocumented learning issue, are addressed in career tracked programs that have services to assist students in these areas. As instructors we are not trained to correctly identify the specifics of a disability or acurartely gage the level of the disability or how it should be met.

Questioning enables teachers to check learners' understanding. It also benefits learners as it encourages engagement and focuses their thinking on key concepts and ideas.

In my course w design presentations to fit the needs of our customers. I prefer to work on this problem by developing the spreadsheets, presentations and databases with them. They are then given the assingment to create one of the three by themselves.

Teachers who include all the learning styles in their lessons will be more effective and have more engaged students. There are all kinds of learners: those who learn by seeing something written, those who learn by listening to something being said, and those who learn by actually doing something. These types of learners have the technical names of visual learners, audio learners, and kinesthetic learners. The best learning situation is one that includes a strong mixture of all three of these learning

Please advise how a clinical coordinator who DOES NOT do any classroom teaching can make this course relevant to what I do? Would love to put all of these course to use someday.

After each class students can self test- to see "What you know"

Sugggest each student think of a question for next class based on class information. Question will increase knowledge of learned information, thinking.

Writing class notes- rewriting notes on index cards and another notebook after class to reinforce informaton.

This section helped me in understanding ways to help my students with learning disabilities.

Allowing students to share thier life experiences in class keeps the class interesting

I find that putting students in small groups helps the weaker students and brings out the leaders in the class.

I prefer floating around the classroom as I lecture. I believe the students feel more involved in a discussion rather than just listening to a lecture. It also helps keep the students attention.

I find that my first day of class is spent overcoming the impression made by the last instructor. My students progress through the technical program as a group and when they get to my class, they are furious with the school and the previous instructors. I have to encourage them to keep attending by showing them the final outcome (being successful in their new chosen field). I know that when they leave my classes they are well on their way to achieving their goals!

When a new term starts, I make my expectatios and class rules known to my students, in writing, along with the syllabus. I provide an opportunity for questions and check for understanding. There are no surprises, the boundaries are clear. I do not deviate throughout the course. My particular method of teaching changes according to my student population. One of the best graduate courses I have ever taken is "Styles of Teaching". The course addressed different learning methods for different personalities. Each class and each student are unique; as instructors, we must learn to adapt.
