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).

I've learned  by  providing  encouragement may help student meet some of their life goals

I've learned about the hierarchy of needs including basic needs, safety, belongingness, ego status, and self-actualization. 

I've learned to have discussions about content and encourage students participation. Have course organized and all tools available for use to apply a real world experience in the classroom. Prompting students to ask questions and encouraging classroom discussion.

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
