I have incorporated technology such as: a TV monitor, PowerPoint, YouTube videos, Cengage videos, and Quizizz game show into my everyday lessons.
In this lesson, I learned the importance of incorporating technology into the lesson plans, but also some of the pitfalls associated with incorporating it. I've also learned the importance of lecture notes, and ensuring I stay diligent with the notes to help improve the course(s) over time. It's also important to understand a clear outcome for the lessons in order to build the lesson plan properly.
Planning is essential for both the student and Instructor. It has a major impact on the overall success of the course.
It's vital to incorporate current technology into lessons because students will benefit both in class and in the field by being able to engage with that technology. Also tracking student progress through various methods of assessment is crucial as well.
Classroom support material and notes are important or lesson plans won't be as effective. Keep an open mind and be creative with staying current with information and technology. I utilize rubrics in the classroom for assessment as a clear cut way to grade, so as to avoid concerns or controversy, should it arise. Know the classroom demographic and learning styles while striving to make the order and flow of course content logical, sequential and engaging. Also remember to take notes, lots of notes.
All of these components come together to make a great lesson plan and cover the bases to make you successful. I learned a lot in this unit.
It's always good have back up. CDC.gov, hhs.gov (HIPAA), OSHA.gov etc.
This module taught the importance of having everything ready prior to going into the classroom. As a new instructor it emphasized the importance of knowing the material, knowing the expected outcome, preparing notes, and knowing how to conduct the assessments.
I havn't really enjoyed the upcoming technoligy but it's the future and the students are 90% adapted to it.
In todays world its pretty much technology
Lesson plans are pay an imprtant role, but if instructor do not reach the expected outcomes - must reevaluate
Support material is critical for the visual gray scale pattern recognition my students need to master.
The use of materials, new technology and refering back to notes will always be a great way to help students understand lesson.
The module has important usage of technology and the aspects of utilizing them efectively in your lesson plan
Bring into class guest speakers who are using the latest technology in the field so they can demonstrate to the students what they will be seeing once they graduate. Guest speakers play a big role, in showing the student what the future will be if the student finishes their program.
Different students learn different ways - its a proven fact that the more resources used in the classroom expecially supporting material, notes and the like - the more likely the student will retain the information. The only way to gague this is by assessing your own progress, using common sence to enhance my teaching effectiveness and my student's learning opportunities.
Notes in a class are iportant while in school, it is a chanel that te students have to study from what you have spoke about
Maximizing the tools available for assessment stratagies and building objectives to pull the lessons together
Using technology is a good support material
Use technology, use current events and hear from the students
