I learned that by me telling stories about my experiences it could be used to fulfill a definite instructional purpose.
I loved the emphasis on nonverbal cues and engaging all students to participate in the learning. I hadn't heard of REFOCUS before.
This is the first I heard of REFOCUS tool. Variety keeps students engaged.
If you are not passionate about your students and willing to go the extra mile to insure they are learning fully, how will they trust you and feel insured that you are the best for them to learn and continue to invest time and funds to the class?
this module set out some examples of how to retain the student's attention to keep them involved in the class, you're teaching in many different ways I learned that you could go about teaching the students by implementing some of your life lessons into the class that you're teaching.
Be creative in keeping the students attention....encourage to participate and be observant of the mood in the learning setting
this is similary to the sales process in hvac, long term report build in minutes
gained a few new ideas on how to improve on getting the students who are not always talkative and participating.
I learned that learning different ways to have students engage in the lesson plan is important. Variety is important so students don't feel so stagnant or burnt out.
Use stories and experiences to make what students are learning relatable. This is will better help with information retention by being able to see how what they are learning translates in the real world.
Stay motivated and engage your students
to establish rapport with the students, trust and respect with one another is very important
I learned skills to reach the students who have a harder time participating
I learned about the REFOCUS tool and the importance of a mid-term survey. I plan to use both in the future.
Building rapport with students is essential
Enthusiasm for the subject can keep students engaged even when the subject matter is difficult.
Keep fresh ideas of hands on activities for students. Sometimes equate silly things with material content. Sometimes the sillier the better. Even though students dont say things they always pay attention. So ask them what their opinion is on a certain topic and allow them to go with it.
I have learned to switch up my class presentations to keep students interested and engaged.
Creating a crisis scenario and having discussions about it can help students understand where they are in understanding content, give time to express what went well/not well, and allow for new questions/discussion on topic matters.
Making the class fun trust me it will keep them engaged.
