Instructional Delivery & Assessment

Public

Ask a question from your peers to help you in your professional work. Seek different points of view on a topic that interests you. Start a thought-provoking conversation about a hot, current topic. Encourage your peers to join you in the discussion, and feel free to facilitate the discussion. As a community of educators, all members of the Career Ed Lounge are empowered to act as a discussion facilitator to help us all learn from each other.

Questioning ensures learning.

I always pose questions upon completion of learning objectives to evaluate if I covered the concept thoroughly.

Every student is a unique learner.

I know that when I teach a class where the content is especially challenging to grasp I have to alter my delivery to reach each learning style.

does varieties presentations

I love my new classroom. It offers the best of everything related to my subject matter. The room is just the right size to fit a lot of students, yet everyone is within an easy talking distance. It's got the latest technology for showing a variety of media, and the Smart Board is quite practical. The room is well lighted and quiet. This provides the perfect foundation for every suitable presentation style. I can always match the best delivery style to the task. Who knew teaching could be so much fun!

Providing a Positive Learning Environment

The message in this module is clear; if we can monitor our classroom environment, be aware of the words we speak (what we say and how we say it)it can only improve the learning experience for our students.

Questioning

Are there any ideas that can be shared about how to really spark an interest in students asking questions of interest about the subject matter.

Teaching Styles

At which point do you incorporate all of the various teaching styles? Or do you divide them equally?

Review for retension

After each segment of instruction, I always ask a few questions about what was covered in the last few minutes. This lets me know who is really paying attention and who really is haveing trouble with the information. I don't want to continue until all understand the subject matter. At the end of the day again ask more questions and lastly start the new day with again more questions. I know the more I ask the more I get back in feed back and the better retention the students have.

Relaxing, Fun atmosphere

In our rooms by having a relaxing, fun atmosphere students will learn more. We all like games and to have fun, so if this is incorporated into our class room activities learning is easier, fun, and the students will retain more information.

The importance of body movement when instructing students

I've common way of instructing on both videos provided by the harvard university, the instructor were energetic moving around the class, representing the meaning with their hands, that keep the students awake in the lecture room.

Creative enviroment

Our class room serves many purposes, it is how we interact with the students in our class rooms that create the creative enviroment of learning. If we use our rooms as learning tools, with visual aids, hands on tasks, and personal space, each student will make it their enviroment and learning will come easier to our students.

Being a good instructor

Being a good instructor means to be open, supportive, interactive, honest, and willing to listen and learn from your students. Not everything is one sided, we have to not only teach our students, but if we pay attention to our classes they can teach us new ways to look at our subject matter.
