Helpful couse that made me realize the importance of seeing the course through the perspective of the students, and way to overcome their individual challenges.

Very knowledgeable will help to work with students from all Culture. 

the section has been very helpful. it has shined a light and guided me to be as dynamic as the class i am teaching. identify the differences i my students. and adjust accordingly

Learners need understanding and support from instructors . 

This module makes you aware that the category of age plays a role is how well a student does in his or her program.  

It is understandable knowing that different stages in age play a factor in how well a student understands his or her program.

By thinking about my students needs I can help them be successful.  These needs go beyond their learning needs.  

This section was is a good reminder of the value of talking and listening to the individual students situations, expectations and goals. Then using this information to make their experience more rewarding.

liked how students were placed in maslows hiarchy of learning 

This information is helpful to learn why we need to get to know the students.  

This course helped me to understand how to motivate students, depending on how the student is self-motivated either intrinsically or extrinsically, to succeed as well as identify issues or barriers that prevent them from achieving their academic goals.  

I’ve learned communication is key as an instructor. Oftentimes we can get caught up in the process of being the instructor. But sometimes it requires doing more listening than talking. Allowing students to express themselves and educate you can in-turn help them. 

I learned from this course that everyone learns and intake things different from others. You must have patient with the students and understand that they also have reasonings as well. They might be frustrated or they might have forgotten. More in fact, they are probably scared. They key word is to have patience and teach your students a way that they could also understand. 

I like the idea of discussing career goal, so I can better understand the students and their needs.

In this module, I have gained the understanding of not only being aware of your students but speaking with them to either being a ear to listen or to help guide them with their next steps. 

Taking the time to understand what the student needs in order to succeed and the importance of their perspective

Definitely being sensitive to individual students' needs is something I'm working to improve in my class

This course was very helpful for me to identify the various aspects of adult learner and how as an instructor I should identify and care for the needs of the adult learner.

Understanding students unique life circumstances and career goals are important in order to tailor your content and teaching style to meet as many students needs as possible. Having office hours and open communication with students is vital to build rapport and offer support as indicated. 

I learned that as a facilitator for learning, on of my biggest jobs is helping my students (or giving them the tools) to overcome obstacles (some physical and some internal).
