Students expect a systematic approach to their learning of the main subjects in the course. One of the ways that I am receiving immediate feedback is the extension of a "Learning Agreement" with the individuals in the class. Initially, I called it a "Learning Contract", but our litigious society has put a negative connotation on the word, contract. I realized that using the word, agreement, indicates that both of us will be required to act in a very objective manner: pertaining to the course desired learning outcomes and practical applications to the real world. I provide a template to the students that relates the following: I need your help. It has become clear to me from students and personal experience that some classes ignore some points that would help the individual student. Here is how you can help the class learn more. Think of some of the: „\ topics, „\ ideas, „\ career objectives, „\ family-related situations and, „\ personal information, etc. that you would like to receive in this class. We will examine those issues and make the class a more personally satisfying experience for you and me. Thank you for your assistance. (Putting your name on this is not mandatory.) ********************************************* I have received invaluable feedback that has personalized the course for the students. It has challenged me to find supplemental material to bring the suggestions of the students to life. This is a refreshing exercise to keep the course interesting for the student and the teacher. Thank you!
