I am usually good with time having taken the Steven Covey management training class through the department of defense it has helped me to get on the right track

My students that I have had for the last two years they have started not coming to class and cheating on test and now it is effecting the four good students that show up on time hand in all their work any suggestions

I never had essay exams because I thought it was a fear for my students but after I tried it once some of them liked the idea and did really good and were creative but the others used it as tool not to study even though I had did review they still didn't pass. I switched up on them and did a mixture of things on my test which makes them think a little more after trial and error I now do fill in the blank define true and false

Why is it that when students come to class and they don't want to be there they disrupt the whole class with their attitudes and then the other students get stressed out what can be done

I happen to be fortunate to have my other job being a Yoga Studio. As a long time practioner of all that yoga is, I have a built in method for handling the stress that comes with have two jobs and a life. It is my job to relieve the stress of others and provide tools to deal with life challenges. So, this topic is near and dear to me, but also distant and mostly under control.

In a cultural diverse community, it is not uncommon to have students from several cultural background, country of origin speaking different languages taking the same class. One of the big challenge is to get to participate in team work in which they have to present their research. What are some methods of motivating students from diverse culture to boldly step forward and present their research?

I never really thought about the noise level at work as a stressor, but now that I think about it, it makes sense. I love my coffee, but I've cut back drinking it past about 4:00pm so it doesn't interfere with my sleep. Sleep is the closest thing I get to a vacation! As a former CPR instructor, I laughed at the part about the dummies being a distraction--they do look goofy. Usually when I try to meditate, I just end up falling asleep. I'm getting better at taking 10 deep breaths when I start to feel overloaded. Try it, it helps!

One big source of stress is making sure I'm there for my kids. I helped my son rebuild his condo after the flood in Boulder and I have a 22-year-old daughter who is a cancer survivor so, of course, her health is always on my mind. Nobody likes to commute and I've even toyed with the idea of taking the bus so I can sit back and read to and from work. I try to take a long walk three times a week as I've found it helpful with relieving stress and stiff muscles.

I'm always trying to improve my grading time so the "50%" idea is truly helpful. While I like multiple choice and T/F quizzes, I rely on essays to judge my student's grasp of the subject we're studying. I never liked them in college, but now I understand why they made us do them! Mobile devices are cropping up in every facet of life; does anyone have a good "one-stop shop" to get up to speed with these gadgets?

This course has been helpful to me because as a practicing hygienist, my time was largely controlled by the office scheduler. There were times during the day which I used for ongoing tasks, i.e. stocking my supplies and data entry. As an instructor, I'm in control of my schedule and must streamline my activities to use my time to its best. Does anyone have any "tricks of the trade" to share with me?

What is the best way to manage time when dealing with a long commute?

I think that establishing a connection with silent students helps them to open up and start networking. Teachers must find out where that connection may exists and pursue it until connected.

If instructors have good listening skills, it's uncommon that they be challenged by a student.

Some teachers do not accept late assignments, I think it's unrealistic. Life happens

I have heard of many students going to the program director instead of the instructor to complain about an assignment or issues they are having in the class. Is the a way to prevent this from happening from the start?

Regarding overcoming the issue of immediacy, I think a lot of instructors feel pressured by their students to get assignments graded and handed back in an immediate fashion, and end up burning themselves out.

Question: Are these courses too long for our 21st Century short attention-spam generation?

Revealing to the class by staements or behavior the fact that this is his/her very first teaching experience

How humans like to be so complicated with little issues and realize life is to short to get so frustrate with thinks the make you go Ummmm is worthy ? I learn to keep calm and connect my brain before I start getting so frustrate with student co workers and the rest of the world with the diversity of cultures and languages you need to learn to listen and think to minimize any streets for you and your listeners and send the correct message without getting outset or be angry with others for little details the Make no sense and the long run is and instructor I try to get 15 minutes of my time along before and after class and evaluated what can be done without getting frustrate or mad and make a change to be better without streets like I say life is to short

Why people get stress I thing people get streets because they mix privates life with work life between the two can be a demanding stressful way to keep going every day I learn by separating the two can be a great therapy to your mind the separation of the two by be and one place and forget about the Oder one people manage keep the balance and life creating a great environment to their life's, to be and home and deal with home issues and be and work deal with work issues that division helps to minimize stress of the two worlds creating a GOP between the two that GOP is every time you drive home from point A to point B is your privates time to think and relax to get ready for your next destination.
