I feel that each instructor that is currenlty teaching should take this coure. I wish I would have taken it prior to me beginning my teaching career. There are so many things that I will use in my class and NOT use in my class. I found that trying to be friends with your students is not always the best practice. I also found that making the syllabus stand out will be helpful.

I have also found that I am making some mistakes as well. I have tried to become more friendly with my students to gain their trust. From this course, I have found I am soooo wrong. I will definately take a lot from this course and apply it in my classroom.

I like to ask the students questions about the lecture I just gave and sing the Jepordy song while they think. It brings something fun to the day.

I have online classes and I get late assignments every term. I always have a few students who do not turn in enough work and do not pass. I would like some advice on how to handle this situation. I constantly call, email, and even text students now to get their assignments turned in. This is an ongoing issue for me and I wish I could get the majority of it solved.

Thank you all for your feedback. I actually got the majority of my students in the next term. The students that did plagiarize are no longer doing the copy/paste. The few conflicts I did have with the students was worth it. Their papers are written better than ever. Thanks again for all the advice. Reyna

This is only my second 5 week term teaching online. I am looking for any and all advice regarding online teaching. I have recently discovered several students plagiarizing their work from Wikipedia. I gave a warning and requested that they re-write the information in their own words. This did not go over well with more than half the students. I actually had one student refuse to re-write their work. I know the schools plagiarism policy. However, I don’t want to loose the interest or trust from the students. Any words of advice would be greatly appreciated.
