I have been using PowerPoint for my presentations and am now learning that having the students do actual bookwork is helping them learn.

This is my first time teaching in a formal setting and am having a difficult time connecting with my students. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

SHould be based on the class type and size

We need activities for unexpected setbacks like malfuctioning projectors.

There should be different develeopment for adjunct.

We need ice breakers

Very seldom you will have a class that every student learns the same way or learn at the same speed. This is why group discussions are beneficial. After discussing the subject, put students into a group and allow them to discuss the topic and then have each group to state what they discussed in their group. Students learn from each other and they feel that they can be honest with each other in their group.

I think it is very important that the instructor is prepared for the class to start. The instructor should have done a preliminary walk through and gotten all material prepared for start of class.

I agree that with students the first impression is a lasting impression. My opinion, students start observing you most of the time before you walk into the class room. When a student discovers that they have a certain instructor for a class, they start asking other students who you are and what do they think of that instructor? Now the student have a preceed idea about you. It is now in your hands to make a positive impression if they have the opposite idea of your knowledge and skills.

Alone with my syllabus, I include a spreadsheet that shows the exact breakdown of their grades. I also send it via email to each student so they can see how their grades are calculated. Every day in class I request that the student list on their spread sheet their daily grades including if they were late and if they were absent. At the end of the Mod, I speak to each student individually and compare my notes with their notes. Students know what their grades are and their attendances at all times. So when they check their portal and it is a double check that everything has been posted correctly.

Professionalism should be demonstrated by all who have expectations of others to exhibit the same.

As an instructor, always carry myself in well respected manner, because of the field that I'm in, students need to always know how to respect, carry themselves, and most inportant teamwork.

All students wished well,most important reminded that I will be there for them through their entire stay in the program

I deliver my expectations of my students and the expectations of the class on day 1 of the class. For those who are absent on day 1, I redeliver those expectations at the beginning of day 2. I let the studnets know exactly what is expected of them, my objectives of the overall class as well as my daily objectives.

The effective lecture will always engaged ant retain thes tudtudentsl It is critical for all students to know there worth

One the first day I class full suit and coat with tie. Make sure I have fresh hair cut. I also make sure may shoes are shined

I try to encorporate audio/visual aids in each course.

In my class, I make sure that all times I am motivating the student to reach the goals in which they set for themselves. Every student is there for a reason and they require the instructors attention. Instuctors are not only to instructor as well as be there for the some students more than others. Some students need that extra support to get them through the course and I am that one to encourage them.

As an instruction, go over the names of my new students,all materials are ready, check my professionalsim, and most important be there to greet students on the first day.

I always ensure that all objectives on the syllabus are covered in my lesson plan.
