This frst module showwed that planning is required for engaging students - and lessons can and should be modified to help that engagement 

I like how one of the points made in this myth module was to be weary of percetages that easily end with a zero of 5, and the percentages added to the cone are all at the ten percetage ending - and are not grounded in research - but it was reminder to check our sources more and while on the surface it might be desirbale to want to say that a certain percatge is reatined by these neat little amounts - there is no formual for retaining information. We all need to review and make sure we encoded it… >>>

I agree with you all here and learned so much about the myth of hemisphericity and it makes sense that the 100% of the brain is working 100% of he time - also liked the neural concert metaohor: 

"Certain players have a stronger role during certain movements"

A top takeaway for me was the section about prpepaing students to receive feedback and how to respond to potential negative feedback (ask for traning resources) 

I am going to use the idea of "pre-planning" for a week the next tme I see a student struggling wth their schedule or time managment - 

During Part 1 of this course I was reminded of many little details - while also learned a few new ideas. 

The many reminders provide dme with an example as to how we do need to review material - and how we soetimes abosrb it n different ways or we might make a new connections with it. 

The video speakers were succint and prvided the information at a nice pace  - warm yet so professional. 

And as usual, the Max Knowledge qaulity was here with breaking up the material into chunks and providing transcripts to go with each video. The… >>>

Two top takeaways from the course so far were:

1) Keeping track of what we do and then going back over our porcess to see what can be improved. We cannot fix what we do not know - and so keepign track of that helps us see lttile things that we might nnot realize are time wasters or tme hlpeers. This is even more imprtant for events that are repeated, like the fund raier mentioned in one of the videos 

2) The reminders for time maagment stratgeies and to help stduents more - like with reminding them to think about… >>>

Great tips here and it is always important to remember that some stduents are overhwlemed during the first class and while going over the syllabus and course objectives - policies and suggested flow of classes, i try to look out for those that seem overhwlemed or might misundertand the points. For example, once when I mentioned that we needed to follow APA formatting on all papers - and mentned to try and not use ambiguous terms - one student replied that he felt like he was being censored. I then exp,ained why we use APA formatting (so we are all… >>>
