I enjoyed this course as I saw some teaching styles that are not conducive to an effective learning environment. However some of these styles are being used. I am always looking for ways to improve or to become more diversified in my techniques, considering all students are different as well as their learning styles/preferences.
Be the Instuctor that you could learn from
Develop professionalism and keeping students motivated.
purposeful prior planing prevents poor performance .
Model, Manager, and Motivator are important roles that are utilized by instructors to aid in educating students.
Leading by example is probably the best method for teaching.
Reply to Thelma Ailsworth's post: really that does seem to be the big takeaway here. I'm new to teaching myself but luckily have been a lifelong learner myself. So yes, super important to keep in mind!
It stressed the importance of planning and being knowledgable about every aspect of the industry you're teaching. Make a plan to always try to improve, assess, keep up to date with changes in requirements, keep in mind retention and replacement, and join professional organizations for support. Mostly though I got out of this to be excited about what you teach and that is one of the key things that will motivate your students to want to continue to learn.
The 5C's were my biggest take away and im looking forward to having this videos available to rewatch if need be. *I also REALLY appreciated that there was the option to read, listen or watch these.. I was blown away by that attention to detail regarding the kind of learners WE as instructors might be... WCU - raising the bar
Always lead by example because your students are watching your every move.
show currency of practice. jf
Continue to grow and improve teaching skills. Seek out resources. Evaluate yourself and make planned improvements.
I learned to always lead by example and stay up to date as best as possible.
Moedle, manage and motive and be professional at all times. Use my education and expirence to motivate the students as well as their progression as professionals.
Being genuine and interested in the subject is contagious. Showing up on time, being prepared, delivering the content in a way that conveys "this is important; this matters" can make all the difference in whether students buy in. I want to improve the cadence of my face to face classes and promote interaction among the students. Covid made that difficult, but I can find creative ways to work in spite of those restrictions.
Model and motvite with connitued passion but also professional development as apart o my plan as an instructor.
Most learning occurs outside the classroom. Looking back to my experience in nursing school, that does seem to fit at least anecdotally.
Model
Manage
Motivate
Always lead by example.
Lead by example, always be prepared for class and set a positive example in a positine anf welcoming environment
