You need to use reinforcement that motivates each learner when reinforcing student learners.

I should identify the reasons for students enrolling in my class to help my students develop into successful learners.

Adult learners are active learners and like to connect their experience with what they learn in class but they sometimes feel like they are at a disadvantage because of their age.

This course has taught me not to send students out of class to solve the problem or they will be seen as being rewarded for griping by being let out of class to handle a personal problem. Don't let the situation escalate if you sense real anger on the part of the student. Maintain a calm demeanor and try to defuse the situation as best as you can. Always have a back-up plan for getting the student out of your classroom should they lose control of their temper. 

You should vary your teaching style to reach as many students as possible and practice your course demonstration before presenting it in the classroom.

It is important to share your background and interests with your students as well as getting to know their interests.

Even if you have taught before, the basic steps of preparation must be covered in order for you to present the maximum opportunity for your students to learn.

Instructors should model behaviors that will enable students to succeed in their technical fields
