Athough we may have been taught a specific perception of a group, we must treat every individual as that.
How to apply holistic assessment as an instructor, every student is different and has different ways of learning. Acknowledging, each person as an individual. Creating an inclusive enviroment and showing interest in each one needs.
Each student needs to be seen as an individual with different learning styles. Learning needs to be a dynamic process versus a linear process. Teach students how to connect new information to existing information.
I find the biggest challenge I currently face in the classroom is the understanding and application of new gender normals. For years we have lways shouted "Let's go guys" to a group of students regardless of the gender mix of the classroom. Nowadays that simple statement "Gyys" can be a cause of problems because of it's specific gender identity term, and is something that we should all get away from.
I have learned and can understand from this lession, the importance of inclusivity when teaching students. Understanding that socieconomics, gender biasis and other factors may cause students to feel "disempowered". As an instructor, I never forget how it felt to be a student or even an adult learner when all of my classmates were younger. All biases, any biases need to be identifed and we need to cognisant of that when we are teaching in person and online.
In order to guarantee success for all students, their individual characteristics should be considered. Our classrooms have a diverse population and addressing the topic of diversity is fundamental to achieve effective instruction.
Everyone is unique in their own way. Therefore, students must be treated equally and fairly to achieve their educational goals. That is why inclusivity is must be applied to a diverse population of students.
It is important to recognize how other people react to different ways of education and try to create an inclusive plan for all to follow, regaderless of gender, nationality or race.
Remebering everyone is an individual and avoid sterotyping.
Be respectful of "STUDENTS" regardless of gender, race, age...They come from all different backgrounds and experiences. Create the expectation of teamwork and respect for all abilities in the classroom.
I also liked the statement, "The teacher's responsibility is to connect content, process and product and the students respond to learning based on readiness, interests and their personal profile." They need to prepare to arrive ready. Come with a mind to learn. And bring themselves the way they. I'll remind them of their motivations and how to actively apply what they learn.
Including everyone (males and females alike) is very important in our mixed gender classrooms that still tend to be male dominated. It is important to not make the female students feel different by addressing them any differently than the male students.
All students are different, making them feel welcome and part of the group is important. I like to encourage my students to interact with one another and challenge them to learn something new about their classmates.
It is important to look at your students from a wholistic approach. Gender identity, race, socioeconomic background, and other factors can affect how the student will approach the program and cariculum. Never make generalized assumptions. Try to plan your lessons to include each student and their different learning styles. Use "on the spot" learning moments to have students identify exclusionary language or actions.
It is important to not treat individuals differently based on perceived gender.
I've learned how important it is not to sterotype when interacting with my students.
I've learned each student is different and from different backgrounds or cultures. we need to respect every person and make inclusive commentsalso beware of comment that may be insensitive
Men are more hands on learners
Be careful not to make assumptions
I have learned to try and learn all the students names. This will be quite a task since I work in a nursing open lab. I have every student from every class in the school come to the lab. This is alot of students and they are always coming and going. Trying to individualize their educational needs by getting to know them is going to be a journey.
I need to take more time to get to know the. students and what is there history and how to use this information to set up their learning.
