In all interactions with students, you should work to bridge the gap between instructor and student to gain rapport. It is important to prepare teaching pior to classes to deliver the best possible teaching experience to the students. The teacher must use different learning styles to appeal to students. The teacher must establish and maintain control of the classroom at all times.
Using different delivery methods and teaching styles to ensure the learning of all students.
It is important to incorporate different methods of instruction.
On demonstrations, before class select site for demo where all students can see. In addition, always have a fall back plan.
I learned the importance of appealing to each learning style and implementing various different delivery methods while teaching to ensure that my students do their best.
I will be mindful to break down the steps to demonstration
Try to teach using several teaching methods.
As an instructor you want to take into account your students different learning styles and apply that to the delivery of lectures as well as course materials in order to have the highest possible success with your students. By varying the way you deliver the course material your students will respond postively and will help keep them from getting complacent during class.
Research shows that the concept of "Sage on the stage" is no longer viable. A professor standing behind a podium and giving a 2-hour lecture is not at all effective in student engagement and student learning. This module has a very good summary of all the various learning styles of students so a good instructor should deliver the content in a multitude of ways.
Having a well defined Lesson Plan is not only important to you as the Instructor, but also helps other Instructors who may be tasked with filling in for you to be effectively able to pick up where you left off and seemlessly continue the course.
I learned that teaching is an interactive process; get to learn the students, circulate the classroom, and ensure that you build rapport with your students.
Creating a "safe space" for students to work through and test ideas and solutions, and looking at myself as a consultant while they work through those problems.
Preparation is always key in instructional techniques. One must always select the most appropriate method to deliver the instructional materials to a class. If one method doesn't work well, the instructor must feel free to change the methodology and techniques.
Instructor should always practise the demonstration first to make sure the procedures are streemline and clear.
Vary your style depending on the students. Each may learn differently
Delivery of material has many factors of influence. Incorporating all delivery methods will help engage the students. Providing 15 minute mini lectures will ensure students are learning.
varied learning styles are important to identify
Use all learning methods when teaching to ensure that all students can learn
Beginning the lecture with something that will grab the students' attention. Having been a nurse for 27 years and serving on the Critical Response Team, I have a lot of stories. I will use my stories that are pertinent to the subject matter as an opening. If I don't have a story, I'll do some research to find an obscure fact.
Apply different teaching styles based on the type of class and students
