The 5 C's were a big take away for this section as an instuctor. I believe these will assist in building a great learning environment and allow the students to become successful in and out of the classroom.
Stay up to date on your field, never think you are smarter than your students, proferssional and personal growth and learning never stops. Lead by example
To work to teach to each students strengths and learning style. We are there for them to learn more than we are there to teach.
To stay current with technology as well as new teaching techniques. Make sure to keep a good development plan and be professional but not stuffy.
I am going to be a Model, Manager, and Motivater!
Learning is the number one goal, not teaching, so listen to what your students may need.
What is really going on in the classroom is learning, not teaching. :)
I appreciated the comment about not trying to prove to your students that you're the most competent in the room. Everyone always has more to learn/
My biggest take away was to always continue learning and having educational goals/ plans as an instructor. This is best for the students.
Use your available resources to adapt to provide compassionate and professional care while modeling to your students appropriate and expected behavior.
I learned that one of the biggest determinants of success as an instructor involves the amount of planning and detail of planning prior to even beginning a class period with students.
Model professional behavior in every way, lead by example, and always work on your professional development.
This is repition but it is reinforcing my Masters material.
modeling as a leader in the classroom should not be underestimated.
This module taught to not act smart because someone in the class maybe smarter than I am. It is important to know the content when teach so that the student can get the message that is needed. It is important for an instructor to find their style of teaching and feel comfortable on how they're presenting the message. The style of teaching refelects on the students understanding so always ensure thate the students are understanding the message. Reevaluation of the teaching style maybe needed if students are not understanding the contents.
Reminder of importance of professionalism.
This has been a good recap of teaching strategies and the importance of motivation.
