From this module, I have learned about the importance of knowing ALL of the material (text, syllabus, etc) that the students are expected to know.
Be as detailed as possible and always be prepared
It's important to be prepared for classes beforehand, I plan to keep a note pad with me .
Be on time and prepare. These are my strong points
We should learn to develop different instructional tools such as
- Create strategies for preparing for the first class meeting.
- Recognize ways of selecting supportive instructional material.
- Write goals and objectives for courses.
- Develop a course syllabus.
- Analyze learning environments.
I learned the importance of showing up early to the class. Also the importance of planning ahead and planning out the entire class schedule/syllabus. The syllabus creates a tone for the classroom.
The ABCD for the objectives is important but I truly appreciated the video of the professor spending time with the students before class. It sets the tone for the class and shows the professor truly cares about the students.
The ABCD of instruction was helpful but I loved the video of the professor connecting with the students. It sets the tone for the class.
its important to set goals and objectives before class along with standards
I thought the idea of a checklist is useful for making sure everything is covered.
I learned to be prepared always for the course I'm teaching.
Checklists will be essential to help you remember various tasks and/or keep track of all the tasks that will need to be covered in your class. Arriving early gives the Instructor the advantage of greeting each student personally and asking for feedback regarding the course.
show up early, try to feel the vibe of the class that day, make sure the classroom is conducive to learning
Setting the tone, layout and objectives helps students to find value in their education. It also allows them to assess their own progress. Being dynamic and using all three methods of learning benefits ALL students
It is important to plan and prepare for each course as this helps to provide structure and accountability.
The importance of reading the material and what students are thinking when starting a new course.
i am a person that hates to be late. therefore, i willl continue to be on time because this helps me to not have anxiety. i believe this will help to develop and shape students to learn the importance of punctuality. i will definitely use my resources such as a syllabus to help the students to get where they are trying to go.
Goal of learning should be clear to the students.
being pre-prepared reduces alot of instructor stress when it comes to classes first start date, along with a prepared check list and note pad to help kept track of any needed changes to be done along with any first day student issues or concerns.
Planning and preparation is necessary to maintain structure. It also provides for being prepared to deviate for circumstances that may arise that are not anticipated. In other words, planning and preparation will lend itself to being organized of which will subsequently provide for alternative solutions to unplanned events. Also, planning and preparation is paramount in establishing a learning and work environment that invokes dignity and respect among students.
