I learned the importance of being specific as opposed to general when it comes to greetings/farewells/wrap ups.

Excellent. This helps me understand and improve my teaching style. I always enjoy these types of lectures.
I can appreciate the way the management styles were broken down.
It makes it much easier to examine your own behavior when you have some concrete criteria to compare against.
Just have to keep in mind what practices are ineffective or harmful and which are productive and potentiate growth.
It was interesting course.
Comment on Michael Howe's post: Interesting course. Highly agree.
It was very good learning skill. I enjoyed having this class.
Great tips and trick for teaching!!
I am encouraged on this learning for the classroom
I truly feel more confident in myself after watching this video, "the Guide" is my personal approach to being the instructor I am always striving to be.
Classroom management is an important skill for an instructor to have. Proper classroom management can have a direct impact on learning in the classroom.
I plan to be a Guide in the classroom and this course has shown me the importance of setting expectations, providing specific feedback, and modeling the behaviors I want to see reflected by my students.
I think I already use the "guide" style. It's the perfect teaching strategy with adults. I can still teach them, guide them along the way and maintain a pleasant, friendly atmosphere in my classroom.
I have learned that my classroom management style is a guide. Not only do I set my expectations in the beginning and remind students throughout the term, but I also build a rapport with my students. Building a rapport lets students know that instructors are interested in their students individually.

Very informative and concise. I have been an instructor for close to 20 years and always find something new to learn or something to clarified, and for that reason I always appreciate these trainings. Keep it up.
I have learned the difference in myself and my teams teaching managements styles, though they are different in style, we make it work for our students.
Classroom management refers to the wide variety of skills and techniques that teachers use to keep students organized, orderly, focused, attentive, on task, and academically productive during a class. Effective classroom management strategies minimize behaviors that impede learning while maximizing those that facilitate or enhance learning
I learned the types of classroom management
This module gave great tips on identifying one's teaching style and helped me find ways to adapt my teaching style to a guided approach if it's not my most used style. I liked learning that having more than one teaching approach is normal because I use the controller and guide interchangeably. Truly, it depends on the content I'm teaching and which approach I use most. In lab settings, I would say that I use the controller approach first to set the standards, then move to a guided approach.
This is very insightful. I hope to work on my style to become a guide in the classroom.
