Activity

The main key is preperation. If faculty and other department services, such as student services, financial aid, etc. staff are involved with all information necessary for students to make a smooth transition to attend school, their experience perception will be positive.
Faculty involvement does give new student's a sense of well being and support. This is definitely necessary to help them succeed in school.
I agree that their should be a time proven method employed by the school or any institution that gives a new student/employee all the information and resources available he/she needs to make their new experience comfortable for them.
I always make an effort to ensure my student's are receiving what they expected- and more. I make myself available to my students' and give them a lot of personal attention to enhance their experience. This shows them that they are not just in a group, but are recognized by their instructor as caring about their individual needs and progress.
What has been covered in this module really says it all.
I always take inventory of my student's background and learning styles so I can modify or make adjustments to my delivery of instruction. This helps maximize their learning potential.
I like to use this three step combination of instruction: PowerPoint - the student's cognitive senses are stimulated by demonstrating the theory behind the task. Instructional demonstrations - the student now sees and understands the link between the theory and performance of the task. Hands-on - now the student can physically apply what he has learned to perform the task himself.
Having all necessary materials to teach, employing latest methods, knowing yourself and getting to know your students will help you be a successful instructor.
As a supervisor, I have found that if I have people in my charge that I can count on to do the job correctly and in a timely manner, I can "let go" of much of the "hands on" stuff and not have to worry that it is not being taken care of properly. Don Stamile Chief Instructor
Good leaders are those who understand that they cannot get a job done or run a business effectively without the support of their employees. Don Stamile
