Supporting the learning styles of your students

Hi Jane- Thanks for your post to the forum. A 4 or 5 hour long class can be excruciating especially if your students have spent a day at work and are tired. You have described a very active learning environment. Congratulations on excellent work! Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan

Getting student participation in questioning sessions

HI Christian- Thanks for your post to the forum. You are doing a great job at getting your students engaged in questioning. Using humor in the "lower level" questions is terrific - especially if it gets the more apprehensive student to relax and join in! Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
