Get Your Students Hired
I feel that each instructor that is currenlty teaching should take this coure. I wish I would have taken it prior to me beginning my teaching career. There are so many things that I will use in my class and NOT use in my class. I found that trying to be friends with your students is not always the best practice. I also found that making the syllabus stand out will be helpful.
In an effort to provide good instruction & classroom management it is important that educators do not act as the "buddy" type of instructor. If an instructors goal is to be his/ her students buddy then establishing clear boundaries will not be fostered.
This course was very helpfull, great tips! Every newer faculty member should take this course.
Taking this course I think will help me be better in control of delivering the material and helping the student to become better engaged in the learning process. Helping the student is the reason I became a teacher and welcome all and any classes to enhance my classroom.
