Knowing and understanding the students' need are vital in enhancing student learning and participation.
This course helped understand learning from the student's perspective and how engaging in class to improve student's success.
I have learned that it is essential to determine the students needs in order for them to be successful in the classroom.
It is important to utilize the knowledge from the student's previous background as well as how to work with an adult learner.
Through this course I have reminded myself of the journey of students. It helps me to remember that socialization is very important.
student retention is very important
Ive learned that you need to listen to all student needs because each student is going to be unique
It is important to provide or at least assist with providing support for students who are in need of it; especially when there are resources available to help. Being a good motivator is also helpful because everyone's reasons for seeking their education can vary from person to person. Understanding the motivation behind a student's learning might shed light on how the instructor/professor can best help.
Understanding the needs of each and every student and building relationships are keys to success. We shouldn’t assume we know things about students without actually getting to know them. Be mindful of the differences in needs and motivations of all students, keeping in mind they may all have different experiences and supports.
I've learned that its important to the adult leaner's whole leaning experience
This helped me to see how important it is to develop a rapport with your students in assisting them to be successful.
My takeaway from this course is that understanding each student and what motivates them, can be helpful with student retention. Understanding that each student comes from a different background is helpful in the guidance process.
Having continual discussions and follow-ups with those students that don't come to class faithfully is important to retain retention.
Comment on Hermine Forte-Morris's post: I agree.
This course is both, a great eye opener and refresher.
Giving me as an instructor supportive direction in the pursuit of my purpose as an instructor.
My belief was re-enforced on this topic, it also took me back to my days as a student (not so long ago) and made me think about why I was attending school. Understanding the why is just as important as any other aspect of the student to me. What motivates people is very different for everyone.
Viewing the classroom and learning styles from the eyes of the student is a helpful suggestion. Also, Maslow's hierarchy of basic needs to be met for each student.
You can't reach your students if you do not know them and where they are coming from.
I’ve learn that getting to know the background of students make its easier to pinpoint the importance of learning between each other.
This module highlights meeting student needs in a course by understanding the individual needs and meeting them through motivational learning and encouragement.
