I found it interesting that service learning enhances student retention.

It is vitaly important to continually read student NV cues in order to test comprehension and interest during a lecture.

I will definitely analyze the types of question I ask my students as well as my questioning technique to boost effective learning.

It is truly interesting how intrinsic motivation is so important to develop in students through helping them visulaize how it feels to accomplish educational goals.

I learned new concepts to implement during lesson planning. 

 

This module helped me to identify symptoms that I did not realize were stress related.  I have found that my breathing becomes irregular while under stress.  I rely more on caffeine when under stress.  My commute is a big stressor as well.  I watch television too late at night which reduces my sleep time adding to fatigue.  I'm a mess!  I will definitely be making some changes, like: exercizing, reducing caffeine intake, and getting to bed earlier!

I had some technical difficulties with this course, but even just the highlights provided me with great new information about how to engage my students in active learning and how effective it is.  I am excited to use this strategy more in my classroom.

I think being passionate about learning yourself is key to being a good instructor.  I also believe you should really care about your students "getting" the material you are teaching. 

I loved this class! Excellent information on interesting research.  I will definately implement some of these ideas.
