About me

Activity

There are many ways to enhance online learning. It is important to find what works well for you and make sure students are able to use it as well.

 

Posting information about myself as well as having students do the same will enable me to build a better relationship with my students!

 

I intend on incorporating some of the flipped classroom techniques into my classroom. I have noticed that the student of today seems to do much better with interactive learning. I would love to spend more time facilitating the mastery of the content over trying to manage the classroom for long grueling lectures in a limited amount of time

I found this course to be very interesting and am looking forward to applying some of these ideas to my next term start!

I too deal with students that are unable to refrain from talking. They are great students, but just can not help themselves! At their age I feel a seating arrangement should not be necessary but, may be my only option. Suggestions??

I find that I want to provide the correct answer to each and every question the students ask of me. I feel badly if I do not know all information. I feel like they lose credibility with me. Am looking for ways to respond to students so that I do not look uninformed, but place the learning responsibility back on them.

 I just completed ED 311 and am excited to incorporate some of these learning/teaching ideas into my classroom. I feel that interactive learning will help me to keep my students engaged and enthusiastic about learning.

It was really interesting to learn of all the different questioning techniques. I was not really familiar with all of these techniques and I was using some techniques I wasn't even aware of. This is another course I will refer to as needed

One of the hardest mistakes for me as a new instructor not to make, is to remain at an instructor level and not become too close to my students. I have always wanted people to like me, I am a pleaser.Students are not always happy with me, thats the way it is.

It is important to move about the room, as I have learned. Students have too many distractions (cell phones, computers) It is important to make your presence known so students will remain involved and motivated to stay on task. This is also a great way to provide one on one time when needed as well as point out positive things going on in the room
