Hello,

My name is Gennalyn. I am a beginner instructor and I would like to hear your instructional style, and how do you begin your theory class?

Some of the questions are worded vague

what is a recommended wait-time during in-class instruction in disage . . . .

You can look at motivation that is positive in creating a non-toxic learning environment where all the learning resources (both material and human ) are provided for successful outcomes and against negative motivation,  where the student is left to be a master of his or her own fate.

It seems unfair that the video questions do not have rationales to provide an understanding of why certain answers are correct/wrong; all answered questions should have a rationale within all courses, which many stated the need of rationales, debriefing, or reflection content for students that instructors should provide; whatever courses encourage or teach for instructors, it should reflect of what instructors should provide to students

What best practices as Instructors can we give to students to ease their anxiety on first day of class/session?

What are the important things to remember to be a good teaching professional?

Modeling, Managing and Motivating...

Are they enough or can you include more?

How do you answer a student when they tell you they have contacted IT and still haven't gotten a fix or response?

I realized that additional to giving students the syllabus and talking about it, it has helped me tramendously to write an agenda on the board on things that will be done/talked about today. It has helped me stay in order.

I was wondering if someone could share an experience when they did not write the agenda but were still able to follow an order. DOes it work better for you to follow the syllabus instead? Or to write it down in your own paper?

What are some actions instructors can take to better facilitate a more calming learning environment?

What is the best method to motivate students?

What would be the best way to Pygmalion method?

really good class

What would be the best way to incorporate group work into a lecture?

I would like to build on what I've learned here. I will be teaching intellectually gifted students who come to us with a high level of motivation to learn.  My desire is to inspire them and not let them down.  This may have been the best Max Knowledge course I have taken, genuinely enjoyed it and learned a great deal!

I see that the recommended number of people to a group is 6 to 8.  What if you have a really small group of students for the class?  In one of my classes, there are only 6 students. Does it make sense to group them to a smaller groups?
