The hardest part to figure out in a 3 week session is a student's needs. Not only do you have to figure out what learning style they have, or what learning or other disabilities they may have, or what past experiance they may have that pertains to the course of study. Now we put in there a student's needs, this can be the pass or failure of this student in the course or possibly their future. If we as teachers can not find out what each and everyone of our students needs are, then we can't do our job to teach the material. Everyone relates to something and we have to find that idea or revalant material to tie our learning objectives to so that the student can relate to our message and grow in our and their course. The courses we teach are as much the students as ours as teachers. Students choose their course of study and want to learn it as well as they can. We as instructors have lived our courses and want to teach it as well as we can. So for this to work we need to know how to tie this to the students needs.
