Instructional Delivery & Assessment

Public

Ask a question from your peers to help you in your professional work. Seek different points of view on a topic that interests you. Start a thought-provoking conversation about a hot, current topic. Encourage your peers to join you in the discussion, and feel free to facilitate the discussion. As a community of educators, all members of the Career Ed Lounge are empowered to act as a discussion facilitator to help us all learn from each other.

i don't know the answer

As a new instructor, I am afraid of being asked a question to which I don't know the answer. How can I handle a situation where this happens?

Tutoring

I found on on one sessions with these students can help us work together on their success. in a tutoring session there is less worry of slowing the class down or feeling outcast for what they may think is a "dumb question". I can get to know their learning style better from the personal interactions.

Language barriers

I have one on one conversations with my english as a second language students so they know they can ask the meaning of a word even during a test which helps calm the fear of not understanding a concept because of language barriers.

Group Projects

I feel group project help build "soft skills" that are hard to teach. Grouping students helps build professionalism through exercise rather than lecture.

learning styles

Does it take longer to present or teach a subject matter a student with a kinesthetic learning style versus an auditory style? IE-less efficient when trying to present a lot of material in the time you have. How do you address this issue?

Any advise for those who are a creative type and have spent most of their career in front of the camera or on the air in radio and now are teaching in that field?

Active Learning & Collaboration

When students work together I often find those who grasp difficult concepts quickly cementing their knowledge by helping those who are having difficulty. Thosw with difficulty seem to accept help from their peers more readily and appear more willing to listen and observe.

engaging students

When engaging a student I think its about making the environment active, I also think it is about making them not realize they are actually learning the material simlutaneously. Thnking outside the box, is something that I live by, and practice daily. I feel it keeps student engaged and on there toes.
