Paying close attention to students helps instructors recognize problems early before they become major issues. Effective monitoring creates a positive learning environment, keeps students focused and on task, reinforces positive behavior, and strengthens the connection between the instructor and students. It also helps remove learning barriers and allows instructors to provide more individualized support and guidance.
I've learned in this section that behavior issues need to be address right away and students typically avoid participating in class activities due to their academic insecurities. I will design activities that required small groups and promote class participation.
Learning how to deal with quiet students has helped me assess their learning style and methods.
Aprendi a manejar el comprtamiento de los estudiantes, ademas de enseñar tecnicas para resolver problemas
In this chapter, I learned that managing students behavior is very important, because if you have one trouble student, I can affect the whole classroom. I also learned how to spot if somebody is cheating or taking advantage of something in the classroom. I also learned to reinforce all of the rules that are in the syllabus to make sure it’s clear to give no room for error.
My biggest takeaways from this section were the positive aspects of student monitoring, to avoid exams that are totally objective, and to consider adding a cheating policy on my class syllabus.
The best way to management my classes and how to make the right decisions
I learned that managing student behavior requires clear expectations, consistency, and professionalism. I will apply this by setting rules early, addressing issues promptly, and maintaining a respectful learning environment.
Preparing myself to handle different types of students.
How to identify students with different personalities and be prepared to address it accordingly if problems arise.
how to control the class and listening to troubled student is effective.
How and when to dismiss a student that is being disruptive and how to manage it. Also learned about different student personalities and when and why students cheat.
I am learning many ways to deal with problem students and plan to implement some new strategies in the classroom
One big thing is handling a difficult student. Take a step back if needed.
The suggestion to take notes during a student conversation is one that I am going to try. I like that it diffuses the student but also think it will help diffuse me and not overthink what the student is saying. It will also help reference things later on when trying to come up with a solution.
Angry students are not the large population but it does occur. When dealing with an angry student it is important to listen, take notes, and keep firm to the decision that is made. I plan to use this when evaluating students during the practical portion of examinations in my course. Students will often dispute their grade, especally when it is a failing grade. I plan to allow the student to fully vent their point of view and listen for key points in their argument. Once the opportunity presents itself, I will convey my position, remain firm, and provide tips on how they can do better next time.
We make strives to get everyone engaged in the classroom, its much easier in the shop. In the future plans should be made to set clear expectations of student behavior and overall class expectations.
The module helped me understand that a lot of school systems don't realize that having hostile and angry students isn't uncommon and can disrupt a lot of classes and rob students of crucial instructional learning. Having a good administration team who removes the student(s) to allow you to continue with the ones who want to be there is key.
I appreciate the section. That said if someone thinks they know it, explain it to the class in a language that everyone can understand. If they can’t then they don’t know it as well as they thought
