Activity

In the university in which I teach our "terms" are 10 weeks' long.  I have been contacting students who are not progressing as is expected weekly.  These contacts are via telephone.  During the contact we discuss what may be happening in the student's personal life that might be interfering with school.  Then I ask the student what he or she might be able to do to "fix" that to the extent it does not interfere with school.  I am wondering whether anybody has any suggestions as to a different or perhaps better approach.  Thanks!

I completed ED102, 104, 105 and 106 within the last two years.  I have found Max Knowledge is easy to use, adds greatly to my store of knowledge, and has given me many wonderful tools to use as an instructor.  I have just completed EL105, and I would recommend it highly.  It introduced me to Rubrics, with which I was not familiar.  "Rubric" is now in my tool box, and I plan to use it with every new term, tweaking it/them as necessary!  Thank you, Max Knowledge!

Discussion Comment
I have one very glass-half-empty student in my class. What are some strategies for helping this student to become a more positive person? She is bright and wants to succeed, but her attitude is not assisting her in her goal.
