Reading this module was interesting because I have been teaching for a while now, 13 years. That can present a danger in a number of ways if the faculty member is not interested in growing in the classroom environment. Everybody has faced challenges that can be easily addressed by maintaining a personal status quo. Teach the same course for two consecutive terms and you can develop a good sense of flow and delivery. Continue to deliver that material the same way for another two terms and you run the risk of becoming stale. One of the things that has kept me interested in teaching is the challenge that each class presents, the challenge to present a defined series of learning outcomes in an evolutionary manner. We have to remember that our students do not live in a vacuum; they communicate outside of class, and set expectations for future students. Even a great teacher will lose students if they are simply relying on the “hype” students communicate; we have to adapt to each class as a new teaching situation. I am lucky, I generally have the opportunity to change which classes I teach every term, but one trick I learned from a college years ago was to assess and review how I was delivering material every three terms. This instructor was limited in the scope of what he taught, but was always reviewing how best to deliver the material and raise the outcomes. As a result his courses provided a vibrant learning environment for himself and the students. adress
