My takeaway from this module has been the importance and emphasis on active learning for adult learners.

Utilize the overview for class already developed . Lesson plans can be adjusted to suit your time/teaching styles.

Why are syllabus, policies, and procedures important in the class.?

How can you improve as an instructor?

I am a baby boomer —sometimes challenged by technology; certainly can use improvement. Having used electronic health records with no problem, now a very green teacher, there is much more  to learn.  I will speak up and seek support in this area.

Have lectures that represent all learning styles, have reliable tests, be transparent, engage with questions, and vary taxonomy.

Clear communication: Teachers need to communicate information clearly, using language and examples that students can understand.

Active learning: Encouraging students to be actively engaged in the learning process, through group work, discussions, and hands-on activities.

Differentiated instruction: Tailoring instruction to meet the needs of individual students, by recognizing their learning styles, interests, and abilities.

Feedback: Providing regular feedback to students on their progress and achievements, and helping them to identify areas for improvement.

Technology integration: Using technology to enhance the learning experience, by incorporating multimedia presentations, online resources, and interactive activities.

Classroom management: Creating a positive and safe learning environment that fosters respect, engagement, and collaboration among students.

Assessment and evaluation: Using various assessment tools and techniques to measure student progress and understanding, and adapting teaching strategies accordingly.

Continuous learning: Engaging in ongoing professional development to stay current with best practices, new technologies, and changing student needs.
 

Touring your classroom before teaching to see from a students view is interesting. Always try to build rapport with the students as soon as possible

When introducing yourself, what are some subjects you include?

Going over the objectives, do you read the syllabus or do you have the students read it?

What guidelines do you give to students when having them teach the topic?

How do you approach presenting material for all learning styles?

How would you suggestion getting through a lot of content with minimal time?  If given 4 hours and you need to get through 4-5 chapters, as well as do an assessment or test, how can this be done effectively?

what sources do you use to keep content accurate and easy to retain

What is the most creative event you've planned for auditory learners?

Providing a supportive learning environment can encourage class participation and growth. This type of learning environment encourage questions and discussions to stimulate the future critical thinkers of our communities. 

The professional development programs are really important for nursing instructors. It can be a great option and move our career to another level. Quality improvement is reflected in classrooms.

Bottom line, it is all about how we project in the classroom. We need to Model, manage and motivate at any given time and feel comfortable with doing so.
