I completed ED105 and thought it was an excellent training and refresher course. It educated me on student focused strategies needed for both instructor and student success.
It is good to know that what I am thinking about in my ongoing professional development is at the forefront of this training, especially ED 105. These are issues I am constantly mulling over and trying to think creatively about.
Understanding each student’s strengths and interests provides teachers with a wealth of information for developing motivating learning activities and themes. The public recognition and regard for each student’s strengths and interests communicates to them that they are cared for and valued. In addition, information on strengths and interests can be used to facilitate students developing positive relationships with each other and learning to respect similarities and differences among people.
I too just finished ED105 and have got to say that the examples for the terms training, learning and education were well done. I guess even old dogs can learn new tricks!!
