Monitoring students from back of room is something I will implement. I usually walk around to make sure they are not cheating.
Reply to David Wilson's post:That is a tricky situation because it seems like one is doing all the work, or they are collaborating on assignments and exams. If each was given a different exam or project, it may discourage the one-doing-all-the-work scenario by forcing the one to take two separate exams or projects. Hopefully, this will discourage the one doing it for the other, considering the amount of time and effort needed to take another different exam or project. Hopefully, you can force each of them to do his/her own work.
A good way to communicate with an angry student is to employ an effective customer service technique: actively listen, and allow them to vent without interruption. When the student sighs, i.e. demonstrates that he/she cannot think of anything else to say, and is ending the tirade, then empathize with the student by saying something like, "If that happened to me, I would feel the same way! Let's see if we can come to a solution." This will let the student know that you are willing to help, rather than to engage in conflict. This should help the student be more apt to listen and collaborate on fixing the problem, with the help of the instuctor.
I appreciate the view on fitting in. Providing an inclusive environment for all students will support the learning environment. In addition, it is improtant to reduce opportunities for students to cheat. Promoting an inclusive environment while protectingthe environment is a great review of ideal learning.
to have a disruptive student in classroom can be quite a big issue, so the best way we can approch situation is carefuly and not make it worse. Teach smart andteach with golden rule dont make it worse! Seek help if needed.
Setting expectations and having conversations with studnets on what they are lacking, such as their behavior, how they are treating others, etc
It is nice to learn the different ways to handle students that are not the role model type and teach them how to change to become just that.
learned about how to work with silent students was very useful , i will use the workgroup strategy, and making the hard call was very interesting specially on how to procede with consultation and documentation .
I feel more confident on when and where to draw the line in classroom behavior
dont meet anger with anger
Yes the students will cheat at any opportuniy they can. Good ideas in the moodle how to handle this situation moving foward. And also how to handle a student that is intrrupting the classroom. We have to know how to confront the student. And ask him why the behavior not just get out of my classroom. Like it was done in the old days. We need to see what causing the student behavior.
Setting clear expectations in the beginning for cheating, missing class, ect is important and to follow through with the consequences helps to manage the class. Consistant is importmant.
setting student expectations from the begining is key to a successful class.
setting the standard is key and if the student dose not continue to adapt to the standard then remove for the class
I have learned that when faced with a student with certain behaviors be productive in keeping that student busy and in tune with the class and if not then speak to an administrator
Great management skills help teachers to assist students in staying focused, keeping on track, and preventing cheating.
In this topic, I learned the importance of student monitoring, and behavior. Listening is important to students who get angry or frustrated easily. I have alot of shy students, undertsanding why they may be shy and using strategies will help my students be successful.
Listen to students, understand them and let them know that we care for them is a great way to improve their behavior and performance in class.
Being the instructor you have to be stern on due dates and decisions in the classroom.
How to manage teaching different styles of students.
