This was a wonderful course on how to present new ways of learning terminology to students. I have many new ways to help students with learning terms in a fun and interesting way that will not have them falling asleep in class. This course is always a difficult course to teach since it has many terms that need to be introduced to the student, and the student retaining the meaning of each word for more than a few minutes. Thanks for the wonderful suggestions.

Motivation of students

I have found on the first day of going over these materials the next item I like to do is inform the students that I too was once in their position; of returning back to school and having to learn another career. This helps to allow the students to relate to me as a instructor and for them to know that I once sat where… >>>
