THIS EXERCISE WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL.I RECEIVED INSIGHT INTO SOME OF THE ISSUES I AM EXPERIENCING NOW.THE SECURITY SUBJECT HAS MADE ME UNDERSTAND WHAT I CAN IMPROVE ON IN THE CLASSROOM.IT MAKES COMPLETE SENSE TO ME.INSECURITY IS LIKE A SNOWBALL DOWN A HILL.THE LONGER IT GOES ON,THE STRONGER IT BECOMES,THE LESS MOTIVATED THE STUDENT BECOMES UNTIL "CRITICAL SHUTDOWN"(WHEN A STUDENT STOPS LISTENING AND TRYING ALL TOGETHER).I WILL DEFINITELY APPLY THE TOOLS I LEARNED TODAY. THANK YOU!

I completely agree with you joann.this lesson was excellent.It gave me many ideas that I plan to implement;especially the putting myself in the student's position,and look at things through their eyes.

KATRINA, YOUR METHODS ON ANGRY STUDENTS AND QUIET STUDENTS ARE VERY PRACTICAL.i PLAN TO USE THEM.hAVING THE STUDENT'S WRITE DOWN THEIR GRIEVANCES ABOUT A TEST GRADE OR SOME OTHER DIFFICULTY THEY MAY BE HAVING IS A GREAT CONCEPT.i PLAN TO START USING IT.THANK YOU

I agree,this course helped me with how to get students to participate in asking questions,and getting them to expand on them.The cat theory is especially appealing and I intend to start assigning minut papers.
