I have had to ask students to leave the classroom because of their disruptions and have resolved the situations with talking with them during a scheduled appointment. However, I have never dismissed a student from a course. Has anyone ever had that bad of a disruptive student?

Within this course it was suggested that "Before you prepare new materials, you should search the Internet for publishers who offer textbooks that come with supporting materials and ask these publishers if you can review these materials." This does not imply we purchase the materials and use them, it implies we ask if we can review their materials and then take ideas from them (plagerize them.) This does not seem right nor do I think copywritten, published materials should be plagerized! This may not have been what the author of this course intended to suggest but that is how it was written. Am I wrong?
Group work can be an effective method to motivate students, encourage active learning, and develop key critical-thinking, communication, and decision-making skills
What are some easy to incorporate healthy coping mechanisms that can be added into a split shift schedule? My schedule is 8 am-12 pm, 3 pm-5 pm, 6 pm-8 pm. I usually end up working the full 12 hours if I do not stop myself for a food break. I am used to working in an office with a perfectly defined schedule of get to work in the morning and get ready for patients, go to lunch and then go home after the last patient. Now that I am a full-time instructor, I am having a hard time defining when to take breaks and scheduling in some stress reducing activities. If I am not prepping for my class, grading and recording student work, documenting student activity, calling dropped students and inviting them back to finish their program, or tutoring students, I feel as if I will get behind. Being behind on grades is very stress inducing. Any suggestions?
How can Instructors help a special needs student, or a student that might have a learning disability? Is there any extra training that could help instructors help theses types of students?
What do instructors do when they have a special needs student in their class that is not understanding the lectures or who has a difficult time reading and understanding the text book, and writing and answering homeweork exercises?
The school standards render every student teachable and every student should be taught the skills and knowledge to be able to fuction and thrive in the careerfield. How do Instructors structure their lectures and homework so that the special needs student can succeed and pass the classes to be in their career field ?
Why would normative be a more affective way to motivate employees. This seems like a negative way to lead.
I am having a really hard time this module with students just not wanting to complete the entire assignment! They either skip questions or omit a whole section. I have tried going over the questions on the homework in a class discussion, I have tried making the sections most students omit, worth triple the points to entice them to complete the whole section. I am getting a whole lot of students with near failing grades. I would think that having a low score would inspire them to inquire about such a low score, or ask me to help them, but they don't and just accept the super low score. Does anyone have any suggestions to get the students to complete the entire assignment?

In the section about "angry students" the author of the course states: "(the pronoun "him" is being used here because hostile and angry students will almost exclusively be male)"
What research backs up this assertion? I've been teaching in a trade-school environment in Chicago for many years and I have basically equal experience with angry students of both genders.
Amazing info. Have used this over and over to find my type of teaching techniques.
about teaching is that at the beginning of every semester, the instructor must, once again, prove themself and earn respect from indivudals they've never met before.
In order to effetively manage a class, an instructor must show his or her students that he/she is knowledgable and cares about their success.
The first day of class is so important in defining the expectations and objectives for the course. Icebreakers and discussions as a group and with each student are fundamental in building rapport and a professional relationship with class members.
Has anyone found this to back fire while in class? How did you handle the situation?
