Be a positive leader, listen to students and be professional
Everyone has a different style of teaching. Do what is best for your classroom dynamic. Always be professional!
It is important to motivate students and help them see the progress they are making in their careers. Once they acquire new knowledge they should (if possible) apply the new skill right away.
Be a good model, lead by example, and make conscious efforts to improve your own education.
Maintain a professional environment
I've learned about the many jobs teachers do, what skills they need to be good at their job, and why planning is so important. I plan to get better at talking to students, try out new ways of teaching, and spend more time getting ready for class. I also understand now how important the first class is, so I'll work on making it friendly and organized. Lastly, I'll try different ways of teaching to make sure all students can learn well.
Comment on Michelle DeJong's post:
I totally agree with you. Lead by example and engage the students.
Professionalism, humility, passion, and professional development are my key take aways from this module thus far. I am inspired to stay excited about my field both for myself and my students alike!
Being a leader and motivating
By reading and watching the ED-101 affective strategies I have better understand and obtained information regarding professionalism in the sense of adding fun to it. I have noted new ways to use this to attract and engage with students to help them stay interested in the class and also help them learn and understand better. I think by just keeping up with this practices in your everyday career will help you master it. Using this fun professionalism methos will keep you a little more updated in how a student likes to learn.
The 5 C's and instructor roles!
Lead by example, continue to learn for professional growth
This module reinforced the importance of being a curator, conductor, facilitator that you show, model and perform the profession to others.
The three major roles that we play in our position, should set the expectation for the student of who they want to be when they enter the workforce.
I love the model, manage, and motivate topics. I also appreciate the suggestion of shadowing other instructors to see how they do thing in their classroom.
Be a role model and practice professionalism
This is a great course and learning the combination of the three areas that should be covered as an instructor is so true to what I believe.
I think looking professional and also making sure you are prepare and ready to learn with interactive learning and not just lecture. Make the students think that you LOVE :) this content, even if it isn't your favorite.
I feel like this is the most important part of teaching and professionalism. Common kindness and a positive attitude with peers and colleagues is so very important. I know we all have some bad days sometimes, but keeping them for home time is always good practice. When we are here, we are to make learning and being at work fun.
Model to the students what a professional Nurse looks like in the field as well as the classroom.
