I intend on using the skills I learned in this module by being myself and creating a space where students can be themselves, while keeping professional decorum. I will also create a space where students feel comfortable learning and asking for help if needed.
its important to greed the student and lern their names it would help the student to not feel nervous
I like students to know that I'm going to ask at the end of class about something they learned during the class that day. Not what they learned the other day, or the night before, but something that was insightful in class the stuck out to them.
Introducing yourself as an instructor is a helpful way to help students be less nervousness as well as giving them an index card to fill out with their personal info so you can get to know them bettter.
It is important to let the class know your background and your experiences.
Learning how to set the tone on day one was helpful for me. I am learning how important the start of the semester will be, and some tips for establishing expectations from students.
I learned that the first day in class I should cover the syllabus and policies. By the end of the class the students should have a sense of where they are going and how they will get there, no strangers in the class, an awareness that I care about their learning, and that the course will be of value and enjoyable.
Introduce yourself and have students introduce themselves as well so you can associate their names with their experiences.
I really appreciate seeing how important it is to connect with students on a human level and learn things about them to strengthen connections
I struggle with remembering names, so the tips on how to do so, and the importance of doing so, were very valuable.
I try and learn each student's name the first day.
Introduce myself and tell a little about my background and career path. Then have the class introduce themselves and share something about their goals and reason for entering nursing. Have them put their names on a card and make a tent so I can learn their names more easily.
It is helpful to learn a little bit about everyone and make sure they are familiar with each other
Give them background information about yourself so you seem more human to the students.
Introductions of student to student are just as important as instructor to student. This will help everyone become more comfortable with one another so you can dive the course.
Introduce yourself to your students, share experiences and your background as well. Ensure that the classroom experience will be an interesting journey.
When meeting the class for the first time it is important to let them know who you are and that you are approachable and human, even if you come from a different planet. Let them know what is expected and that you are there to help and guide them. They are probably more nervous than you so put them at ease and let them know what is expected of them. Have Fun.
I've learned that you need to be personable, get to know each student. Try to learn each students name, and give the students some information about you and your experiences in the trade.
Allow students clarity of the course, and understanding of their instructor.
I believe getting to know students, as well as allowing them to get to know one another is a great way to get everyone in a more comfortable state, and one that allows them to feel at ease asking questions and participating, which is what it is about for me as an educator.
