ED 101

I just finished ED 101 and it had so many ideas that I had never thought of trying. It allowed me to think about teaching in a Career College in a whole new way. Concepts were clear and easy to follow. It is a course that beginning instructors and the most seasoned of us need to take.

Variety of testing styles

I like to evaluate my class in the beginning to determine the learning styles.  I ask my students for feedback after material has been presented.  I use this feedback to generate the proper testing format.

ED 103

I learned a great deal in this course. The content is going to be a benefit to take into my classroom. I usually give my students their grades half way through the course, but I think I will start letting them know more frequently to keep their motivation up and also to recognize the ones who may be struggling a little earlier.

letting the students get updates

I find that by letting the students get frequent updates, as far as where they stand in class, is a great motivational tool for both the students and myself.

EL104

This was a great course that I recommend to all. It will give you all the information on why and what is needed for your online classes.

104

I found 104 to be a very interesting course. It supported previous information and knowledge. Nice to know I am doing classroom management correctly

ED104

I just completed ED104. It was a great course. It taught us applying various strategies dealing with students in different situations. When students confronted me and asked for better grades in the past, I usually countered each of their points and the outcome was not very effective. So I especially like the approach suggested in the module - “ When upset students confront you about a score or grade question you can reduce the tension by having them write up their complaints and submit them to you.”  What an excellent way to deal with upset or angry students. I can’t… >>>

ED101

I just completed the training and thought it was great.  I'm looking forward to using multiple media techniques with my new class. As a new instructor I am always looking for new & unique ways to present material to students.

E105

This course made me evaluate my own type of teaching.  This being only my third semester teaching,I am always looking for a way to improve my student interestes to learn.  You never now you could have an "Enstein" in your class and if you are not teaching correctly he/she could lose interest in you class.  Thanks for the knowledge.

ED104

Very informative. I look forward to continuing the next course.

ED 104

This course helps me to emphasize my pofessionalism with the students.  It showis me I can be professional and at the same time friendly and caring toward students.  The subject professionalism is an important part of class management for the instructor as the ultimate role model for the students to establishing rapport with students.  This ensuries me to be helpful and caring towards the students, gving a good example, at the same time students understanding that there is a professionalism between instructor and them.  

 

lessons 101 and 102

I slao have found this training much better for my style of learning. It is easier to read and remembwer with the short quizes within the material. I am so excited about continuing on in this learning. At last, I can interact with others, here their stories and share mine.

Great Course

This course had a great deal of helpful information that I will carry with me during my daily routines and lectures.

Great product!!

Teaching Old Dog New Tricks

I teach at a Career College where stress is a everyday occurance.  Most of the stress is caused by the students fights, indifference to the course that students show and things that can not be changed.  After taking this course I stopped and took a good look at how I cope with this stress.  I had not smoked in 19 years, but found myself smoking again to my husbands dismay since he got me to quit.  Sometimes the situations at work could be so stressful that I did not want to see family, friends or engage in the activities I>>>

training lessons 102

I find this training is far above any training I have been apart of. Their games, quizes and format is excellent. I have no problem following the course outline, even thought I am 69, and came to technology at a late age.

 

Great Course

I am an instructor at a career college. This course was a great refresher. A back to basics course, with new and fresh methods that work in todays classroom setting. I really enjoyed this course!

ED106

I just finished ED106. I have been teaching at the middle school and high school level for 15 years. I have been teaching at the college level for 5 years. This course was refreshing and a good reminder of topics that I learned when I was in school. I also learned some new ways to work with students with disabilities.

content

I think this  was great and wish this was available when i had new employees starting!

This was good content for new instructors.

ED101

I thought this course was very helpful with me being a new instructor. It will help me further preparing and teaching my classes
