it is good to get all kinds of learning types intergrated into your class

using props is good for the learners, stimulates their ability to associate with the topic

it is good to ask the students direct questions about the topic

EXCITING. A GOOD SENSE OF THE STUDENTS AND WHAT THE EXPECTATIONS ARE.

TRYING TO DELIVER EVERY LITTLE DETAIL IS OVERWHELMING, BUT WILL BE MORE COMFORTABLE NEXT TIME TEACHING.

TRYING TO MEET EVERY LITTLE DETAIL HAS BEEN A CHALLENGE, BUT NEXT TIME WILL HAVE A BETTER SENSE AND FEEL OF THE CONTENT

EXCITING. ALWAYS REWARDING TO SEE THE STUDENTS EAGERNESS WITH MEETING NEW INSTRUCTORS. GOT A FEEL REALLY QUICKLY ABOUT STUDENTS AND WHAT THEY EXPECTED.

I HAVE BEEN FINDING IT A LITTLE DIFFICULT TO GATHER ALL THE IMPORTANT INFORMATION WITH WORKING A FULL TIME JOB 10 HOURS DAYS ON TOP OF TEACHING PARTIME. HOWEVER,IT HAS BEEN GREAT FEED BACK FROM THE STUDENT WHO RECOGNIZE THE HARD WORK BEING PUT INTO THEIR STUDIES TO PREPARE THEM FOR THE WORK ENVIRONMENT.

BEING A NEW INSTRUCTOR, THIS OVERVIEW HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL. BROUGHT THINGS TO LIGHT WHEN FEELING A LITTLE OVERWHELMED.

Today because of so many distractions and everything being so fast pace it is so important to bring your students in and motivate them to achieve the necessary outcomes/objectives of the classr. Always present yourself (the teacher) in positive nuturing environment. The way you articulate your voice and the way you represent yourself as professional will make a major impact on you in classroom and with the students in the room. So always be enthusiastic and make sure you speak to your students just as you were publicly speaking to audience. Students will appear happier when you market and present yourself in a positive professional manner always.

The online lesson used an example of a "negasaurus" dinosaur to help control behavior. What other items could be used to control negative behavior or students that have lost interest in the lesson?

Too often I find that when it comes time to start planning for my classes, I am never in the environment that is conducive for me completing the process. Planning the proper setting will maximize how effective your planning will be or is just as important as preparing the lesson plan. Kudos to those of you who can work in a loud environment.

Students attention spans have short fuses. Your goal as an instructor is to be efficient and entertaining. Students need to not only learn the material you are lecturing, but as well must stay focused during your lecture. Finding that balance between the two is the key to delivering a great lecture.

First impressions are everything! Professionalism is the key. The way you walk, talk, dress and present yourself the first day will set the tone for how your students will acknowledge you the rest of the term.

I feel it is important to spend a week at a time devoting one's self to the next week's cirriculum. Study the material and prepare it in a way that the student will not only ontain, but understand. By far the most important aspect to teaching for me is preperation and planning.

Being a new instructor, I feel it is important to have the oppurtunity to observe your peers. The fellow instructors at your facility hold valuable tools and ideas that you as a new instructor can pick up on and possibly use in your teaching style. Everyone should be granted to the chance to watch their co-workers in action and absorb as much knowledge as they can from the expierence. Steve Carnahan II ST P.D.

I enjoyed the part about phrases that increase learning. The facilitator using the words.."This part you will find exciting, This will be easy for you, There are only right answers," is a positive way to get students attention. I will start using this method immediately.

a student with a poor back round in test taking or with some kind of disability can with a little attention and explaintion be able to inprove on their test grades.

life experiences can , if related to the subject of the day, help students understand what the real world is all about. this could be a benifit to someone in the future.

i have my students sit in the room on the first day of class and i than make a seating chart. the table we use seats 3 people and that becomes their team. this has worked very well for many years.
