Writing means learning and is validated in the classroom. Make sure the environment is positive and comfortable. Can do group writing. Provide timely feedback that is linked to the goals of the assignment. Help students understand they will do many drafts before they arrive at the final product.

What I learned from this lesson is to assist students solve their ethical dilemmas by brainstorming solutions.  Help students do self management via live long learning and how to deal with their issues. To get them to become better at critical thinking assist them in their self awareness by actively listening, shifting them to be more involved in their learning, and communicating more effectively.

The course discussed writing as the foundation of students learning style and critical thinking. If a student can develop their writing skills and have them critiqued then they will become better with communication. Communication in the professional arena is an area that is in need of improvement. As an instructor we are the resource and critic for them to practice and perfect their skills. 

To me as a teacher, it is paramount that it is not only necessary to "have" or perform these "generic soft skills", but also quite important to adjust those "personal abilities and attitudes" to each specific environment.

In this regard, I would define the "environment" as the students -and everything related to their educational capabilities- and the teaching conditions in which you deliver your classes.

I truly believe it is quite important for a good teacher to successfully identify and quickly analyze the different key aspects that involve and have an impact on both, your students and learning and teaching conditions to effectively apply your "soft skills abilities and tips"

I consider, how might I transition to a flipped classroom form of instruction? It seems a bit daunting.  I would start with a lesson I currently teach that has poor results.  I will make changes to the pre and during class lesson objectives and activities.  I need to identify how to grade the pre and during class activities, to ensure that my grading is objective,not subjective. 

I would be interested in hearing from others how best to weight the grading in this style of classroom.  

I always try to be open to other points of view.  I feel you can alway learn SOMETHING from everyone -students, personel, instructors.

If I can learn one new thing a day...it's a win.

Having said all that - I feel we need to bring soft skill values to the classroom for our students to learn.  They lack soft skills..maybe life experience may help, but I would like to be a failitator to help them learn a positive outlook, integrity, and the value of being a team player.

I believe giving feedback is very important in the classroom. I try to give positive feedback as much as I can because we also need to encourage our students to want to continue learning.
