I have learned so much from this module! I can definitely see how my time management issues in my one teaching position before undercut my credibility with my students, and I need to give myself more time moving forward to be better prepared so I can be on time. I also like the idea of developing a professional development plan that is big plan but also takes into account that I am a first-time classroom instructor with a lot to learn just in that arena, and it's ok to focus there and then expand outward once that is more settled. 

Be an excellent role model.

Hello , I've learned to have timeless accomplishments. Clearly creativity and interpersonal skills are vital.

Educate, Equip, Encourage (and model it)

to Educate the students, I need to be educated on the subject;

to Equip, I need to be equipped for the lesson (prepared, examples, Q&A, etc...),

and to Encourage, I need to be encouraging (even when I am exhausted, not "feeling it", or going through challenges)

One way to identifying a instructional style is to look at your past instructors. 

As a new faculty member transitioning into a new profession as an educator/VN clinical instructor, I am excited to expand my knowledge through the art and science of teaching. My goal is to help our students improve their success and opportunities in a fulfilling career.

model by my own behavior what I expect in class. Manage by example of my time in lecture and answering questions so students learn skills to help them in their career path. Motivate with classroom progress and goals that have been achieved/  

Remaining professional in ALL aspects of teaching. I work with students in a earn and learn program and sometimes it can become a little relaxed. Keeping professional and focused will help me in these situations keeping the teacher student dynamic.

As educators it is important to be professional and model behavior that you would like to be exhibited by your students.  Also, making sure that your students are actually learning and that you adapt your classroom to the type of students you are teaching.  Not all students learn the same way and adjustments need to be made accordingly.

I learned that developing a professional persona and establishing leadership in the classroom is highly important. On top of this is to be compassionate and fluid in your teaching styles and go with the ebb and flow of the classroom. My aim as I begin instructing is to always be analyzing my style and the material and cultivate the most successful approach to assist student learning and motivation. I am excited!

You are the instructor & leader but that does not mean you have to outsmart everyone. Be human, admit faults when there are some. Be professional but also be a personable leader for your students.

As a previous instructor, I learned that the more prepared for class and the students, the better class was enjoyed by all.

As a leader, you will need to learn what is the best type of teaching for your students. Not all students respond in the same way. The 5-C's really were spot on for me.

Modeling professional behavior at all times, not just in the classroom but also with those you meet along the way like in the hall. Being prepared for class, on time and early show respect to those you are teaching and that you are focused and prepared for the lessons to be taught. Also learning from other instructors and developing a style that is your own and effective for the age you are teaching. 

modeling professional behavior at all times, not just in the classroom but also with those you meet along the way like in the hall. Being prepared for class, on time and early show respect to those you are teaching and that you are focused and prepared for the lessons to be taught.

Know and manage your subject and content.  Convince the students that you love what you do and not just like it.   

Model behavior,  lead by example, and the 5 C's Credible, Candid, Compassionate, Committed, Clear. Excited

  1. That as Instructors we have a lot of great responsibilities to our students. We need to be to be leaders and role models. That we need to set the tone of our classrooms. We do this by with Modeling Professionalism, managing expectations and motivating our students.  We need to show up every day to class prepared and on time.  We need to be passionate about the content we are teaching to inspire and motivate our students. This will help keep them engaged so they will want to keep learning and growing as students. 

Be a role model. Show by example. 

In order to create an active learning environment, you should be an active participant in the teaching process. Be prepared be positive and be consistent.

Lead by example, stay current within your profession to convey the best n most current knowledge you can, be committed to your profession n your students. Show them your commitment and be clear and compassionate about their education and new career path.
