As an instructor I need be a leader in the classroom and not be come a pal. I also took interest in the components of modeling which consist of dress, language, conduct, time, leadership and confidence.
As a leader not to think you are the smartest but to love what you teach and know it well enough. Also leading by example and maintaing professionalism.
I never thought of looking back to when I was a student and who I really liked as a teacher. I reflected on this and realized that my teaching style is similar to those that I enjoyed learning from. Their excitement and love of the subject matter were incredible.
I have learned about in this course. Learning how to be become a better instructor for the students, institution and myself.
The roles of the instructor- model, manager, and motivator. I think if an instructor possesses all these attributes he/she will have a successful teaching.
Develop a style of teaching but be prepared to adapt to your students because one particular style is not going to work on all students.
Always be ready to learn and grow with your students to be a better teacher
Its importatnt to be a role model for your profession, a motivator and a mentor.
It is important to plan your future training and development as an instructor. There is always room for improvement and it is vital for new instructors to learn how to be more effective and confident in their work.
I have learned about the importance of having a professional development plan and the various areas development can include.
How to prepare before class, and that different students will require different approaches of the subjects.
Also, it is ok to be wrong, just admit it anf move on.
Know where you stand with your students and yourself as a teacher. Be the instructor to them that meant the most to you when you were in their position.
Students learning is what matters. Learning will depend on how you present the knowledge you want to them to learn. Being able to get their full attention to listen and be motivated to the career they enrolled to measure your effectiveness as an instructor
Personality is a competency
This was a great module. I am a new instructor and it has given me so much valuable information. I am not a great public speaker but i seem to perform better when it is a message in which I am knowledgeable. I know I have so much to learn and it would seem it is an ongoing learning process. I really like that aspect of this module. It seens as an instructor you are always finding new ways to teach to reach your students in a better or unique way.
The topics in this presentation are a review of the content learned while preparing for my post-graduate education.
Instructors must have 3 roles: model, manager, and motivator. We must be professional and follow these roles in order to be excellent educators. Educators must be competent in 3 areas as well: technical, professional, personal competent. It is important to have an instructional style and have a professional development plan.
Continued professional development should occur throughout the years of experience of the instructor. There is always room for improvement. I will stay up to date on technological advancements and field-specific advancements and changes that will help me improve myself and my effectiveness as an instructor.
Given how important it is for an instructor to be committed to teaching and enthusiastic about the subject, I hope to also keep a lively, positive, and enthusiastic energy surrounding the ideals of learning and the specific field of study whilst in the learning environment.
Understand who you want to be as an instructor. Follow the guidlines in regards to model, manage, and motivate. Be enthusiatic on the topic you teach. Then make sure you continue to look for ways to improve your knowledge and methods within the accrediting and federal guidelines.
