Creating a "safe space" for students to work through and test ideas and solutions, and looking at myself as a consultant while they work through those problems.
Preparation is always key in instructional techniques. One must always select the most appropriate method to deliver the instructional materials to a class. If one method doesn't work well, the instructor must feel free to change the methodology and techniques.
Instructor should always practise the demonstration first to make sure the procedures are streemline and clear.
Vary your style depending on the students. Each may learn differently
Delivery of material has many factors of influence. Incorporating all delivery methods will help engage the students. Providing 15 minute mini lectures will ensure students are learning.
varied learning styles are important to identify
Use all learning methods when teaching to ensure that all students can learn
Beginning the lecture with something that will grab the students' attention. Having been a nurse for 27 years and serving on the Critical Response Team, I have a lot of stories. I will use my stories that are pertinent to the subject matter as an opening. If I don't have a story, I'll do some research to find an obscure fact.
Apply different teaching styles based on the type of class and students
After reviewing the content I learned that you have to utilize different mehtods of teaching. Try to approach a mixed presentation style because each perons learns differently and we don't want to use just one style because you will not be able to reach each student individually. It's best practice to display more than one teach style.
Many ideas concluded from this section, Generally, be in the look for new ways and methods to deliver the material will help keep the Class interesting
There is very little conclusive research to actually suggest adults have one main learning style. However, the ideas in this section still do have good methods, and changing up approaches (lecture, recall based activities, etc) is good.
Each time I teach a course of instruction, I take a look at the age, ranks and experience of my students. From that, I can start to figure out what level of knowledge they need on the subjust I will teach and what type of methodologies I will use. Knowing the student population always helps because after all, the classes we design and teach are specifically for them and their requirements.
I will spend more time working through the methods of using different learning style, lecture and delivery types.
Planning is essential to having a good session. Varying lecture and delivery types help to be sure each student is engaged and subsequently learning and or increasing their knowledge. If a student sees that a lesson is well planned out, they will be excited about the process and look forward to the next session.
People olny absorb so much information and have short attention spans. Therefor varying a teaching style to shift a students brain to constantly refocus is good.
Observe yourself teaching...sometimes we dont convay what we mean to though body language or instructional language for we are only human.
Varying your delivery to address as many learning styles as possible can engage students and assist them with learning the material.
I like the importance of varying teaching styles for various learning styles. This provides some variety, makes it more engaging, and helps different types of learners.
I liked learning about the three ways that people learn. I will have students submit their assumptions about the topic prior to reading it so that we as a class can discuss them once the students have read the chapter.
I learned there are many more ways to deliver content. i intend to implement several of those ways in the classroom.
I need to include interactive lectures more so that brainstorming with the students will improve outcomes.
