What I've learned in this section is that we have to maintain and display professionalism at all times, and to not be our students friends but their support person that is there to offer support and encouragement.

Mnemonics along with guided notes and scaffolding are essential tools in assisting students in retaining new knowledge. So far all of the resources in this section demonstrates that students all learn and retain knowledge very differently. I love that we can utilize these skills in our teaching to assist our students in reaching their goals.

I've learned that we have to be able to incorporate our objectives and somehow relate it to their own personal lives and goals. I feel like as instructors we should not just review topics for their pretest but also do a post test review to ensure understanding and comprehension.

It's interesting how the different types of intelligences influence teaching and learning, definitely find it challenging learning how our students will learn what is being taught but at the same time trying to adjust teaching methods in order to make sure that all students understand the same topic that is being presented.

I feel like this topic helps instructors understand how the mind works in recalling new information and memories of the past while utilizing it to incorporate with new knowledge, it can assist learners how to engage in a way that they understand and can relate to in real life.
