About me
I am a Florida State licensed Physical Therapist Assistant and currently Academic Coordinator of Clinical Education for the PTA program here at Concorde Career Institute, Miramar, FL.
I am also going to be teaching the PTA students about half of the technical term curriculum and I am eager to learn how to be an effectve teacher in the classroom setting.
I have extensive experience with clinical education and several certification courses over the years of my practice, but this is my first time in a formal career educational setting.

Definitely new to the idea, but also think it's a great way to incorporate social media!

I agree, but my main issue is, no matter the type of rubric, students just don't follow it! Very frustrating

True for PTAs too, but often I find the states are not on the same page with employment rates and other issues, so, often may hinder the interst of a potential student looking about the forums.

Yes, this module is a good reminder that the institution guidelines and policies are being followed as it might be easier to 'slip' or allow a student to go into behaviors that if early intervention is not made, retention may be an issue.
I truly liked this module. Particularly the new students bio and introduction ideas. I truly like interacting with the students, knowing more about them with a small bio encourages them as it shows them we care about them individually and not only see them as a "number" behind a computer screen.
I learned that the online instructor must prepare as much or more than other instructors. Also that the level of comfort and trust a student has on the class, instructor and delivery is quite contingent on the instructor's preparedness.
YEs, because we go on seeing different programs and it's easy to mix things up!
I agree. Being a clinician before a teacher I could always trust HIPPA and to find FERPA in place has been such a change from when I was a student. Definitely became aware of deliverying grades and assignment results in private.
