I am a stickler for late assignments. I teach night classes and realize most of my students have full time jobs. Should I be more easy going about late homework?

IF A MISTAKE IS IS MADE IN THE PROCESS OF TEACHING,I believe the best thing to do is own the mistake fix.It teaeches students two important lessons. 1.that we all make mistakes 2.when a mistake is made it is always better to be honest ,ask for help if needed and to not be ashamed

CHEATING IS WIDESPREAD WITH ALL THE TECHNOLOGY OUT THERE.HOW DO YOU CONTROL WITHOUT MAKING STUDENTS FEEL AS IF THEY ARE BEING TREATED LIKE CHILDREN?

I BELEIVE THAT ADULT STUDENTS TEND TO ON A WHOLE,WITHDRAWL IF THEY FEEL PUT ON THE SPOT OR THREATEND

MY BELIEF IS THAT AS INSRUCTORS WE NEED TO BE 100% CLEAR ON CORSE REQUIREMENTS.THERE SHOULD BE NO CLASS DEVEATION.

Stress is basically defined as an applied force or system of forces that tends to strain or deform a body. It is usually caused by something that is out of the ordinary from everyday life, things like tests, family problems and loss of job. Today students have a lot of stress because of a lot of different reasons. There are many things that cause stress for college students; school-related issues, relationships, and peer pressure.

For workers everywhere, the troubled economy may feel like an emotional roller coaster. "Layoffs" and "budget cuts" have become bywords in the workplace, and the result is increased fear, uncertainty, and higher levels of stress.

Hi Folks, my name is Qadar and I teach computers to MA (Medical Assistance) and MBC (Medical Billers and Coders) in one class. I teach both groups how to use both EHR (Electronic Health Record software) and PMP (Practice Management Program software). To create a team work between the MA and MBC students is very difficult. To break the ice between the groups I give them a research paper named "COMPUTERS then and now". I break them up into groups (mix of both parties) and research through the internet: History of computers, advantages and disadvantages of computers. This idea is working out really well. If you have different ideas that I could implement please let me know. Thanks.

some stress is always going to be evident, learn what it is and the best way to deal with it.

stress can cause many health issues that can be mostly avoided with the proper steps.

grade during no distractions to minimize mistakes

use all the time you have to keep students active, it serves well with student satisfaction at end of course results and ratings

Each school should have a mentoring program for new instructors.

Monitor and react to problems as quickly as possible.

Be willing to adapt to a new environment.

Managing a classroom involves structrure and discipline.

When I read this suggestion I thought wow I am going to try it tomorrow and for the rest of the module. I have a couple students that this might really work for.

I strongly believe that all instructors should have a base of classroom policies and everyone should be made to follow them. I have found that if I am strict about the dress code and flip flops being worn, students seem to retaliate by saying that other instructors do not make them do it. I feel like "the bad one" when I enforce the school policy and send students home to correct the dress code.

I have a technology policy on my syllabus which I explain the first day in class that states to turn off all technology during class time. The students can use their technolgy during break times. I do let students use their laptops when working on writing assignments or working in groups.

I like to motivate the students to come for the next class period by sharing a few exciting tidbits of what we will be learning the class time.
