Knowing your student will help better your teaching method

Evaluate your lecture and involve all student with come back questions.

One of the way to better teach your student is to evaluate there study habbits

I have implemented these exercisie in my class establishing the students level of learning or the previous instructors had already informed me about certain students. I will aslo do an evaluation of the students,. I am teaching anatomy and physiology. Students may not be able to grasp this module effectively, it takes time for this course. Students that come to me are from front office and it may take awhile for some of the students to adapt to this module. I play games to enhance their learning capablities and learning with the medical challenge.It seems to work.

Stick to what is in the syllabus. By doing so, you will keep the students in the same areana. If you're all over the map, then your students will be all over the map.

Upon meeting the class for the 1st time, one should keep it very professional. Don't let your guard down and show favoritism to a friend who is now a student. Set the tone upfront. I've been in classes where a co worker was the Course director and called me out by my 1st name on day one, folks then begun to look at me as 1. a spy and 2. like I was the teacher's pet and would pass not matter what. Keep it professional.

A 2 - 3 minute "Introduce Yourself" will enable each student to give a brief picture on them self and allow fellow students to pick out things that they may have in common which in turn will form a bond through out the class time. I feel this is very important.

I like Michael am also very lucky where I work. We have a 2 weeks Course called MOIC, Method's of Instruction which provides the tools to become an instructor. You have to provide briefings and write lesson plans. I am one of the lowest ranking people in my university and I am allowed/encouraged to attend, although at the current time, my duites do not require me to attend. I will attend in January 2014 which will open many doors for me down the road.

This is my biggest challenge. There is always at least one student that doesnt want to be there and its hard to keep them involved.

I teach design and my students have a fair amount of studio time to work on projects in class. Sometimes their casual talk contains four-letter expletives. I tend to let it slide, but wonder if I shouldn't. Any thoughts on this?

How does one incoporate more open ended questions the first time teaching a course? There may be a few concepts here and there that the instructor doesn't fully understand yet so the tendency is to only ask closed questions. Any tips?

Highly qualified providers are teaching in the Allied health schools . Should they earn a better salary?

Too many accrediting bodies for the Allied Healthcare field.

Allied school should be more competitive in allowing qualify students in their schools

Should there be more instructors teaching different fields in another language?

Critical thinking is one of the most tool for assessment. To assess the student grade it is helpful.

Do you have difficulty with interpretation questions

What type of questions do you think would aid you most in learning.

I really enjoyed this section . Ita has further improved the way i teach or facilitate objectives in my class. I am applying all this suggestions and man do they work . I am looking forward to the next section

Playing a short 'getting to know you' game will allow the students to be more comfortable with each other. They may notice strengths in on another and find better ways to work together.
