There is always room for professional development, new areas to explore, even after years of teaching.
Purposeful prior planning prevent poor performance.

As theory and clinical instuctor, I often bring my expertise and knowledge to the table. I agree there are so many students with different ways of learning, which I feel is the hardest part of teaching. So I try to incorporate varies types of teaching in each session. My I do agree, I need to have more compassion for my students in a positive way.
As a new instructor I must always be professional, be a good role model, and communicate in a way that my students learn and absorb the information.
I took away that you should always show up as a professional, don't assume you are the smartest, and to be excited about the topic.
The 5 C's-I loved this concept and Model-Manage-Motivate!
Learn your teaching style and be a good role model to your students!
I feel as a new instructor the take aways are be prepared, be accessible, and don't be a know it all. I'm excited to learn from and with students as an instructor.
I learned to be cognizant of how to effectively translate my personal knowledge to the learner/student.
How we learn is not necessarily how others learn. Take the time to understand your students and educate them to work thru their barriers and achieve success.
Model, Manage and Motivate!
Leading by example is the only way to truly lead.
BE a friend to the students and not a pal. Lead by example.
I had a couple of main takeaways from this section. First, there is a difference between teaching and learning. That difference often determines effectiveness. The second is creating a development plan for growth as an instructor needs to be a high priority.
Lead by example and dont think your all that .
I see how I can perfect my skill withthese tools moving forward. Very informative information and skill sets
Have the knowledge in what you are teaching and be a role model for students
3 Major roles: Model = be a person of exellence, Manage = bring a everything together and Motivate = help others get to their goal. Also develop yourself, be yourself and apply yourself to career and students.
This is very interesting as a first time instructor. The information makes sense and I look forward to putting it into practice.
Have an open mind to discover self and the best way to help students to learn. The first priority for students is to learn not teaching. This was an AH-HA moment going through the content.
