Managing Student Behavior | Origin: ED104

I learned that I need to set more clear expectations about classroom behavior. I have a hard time giving zeros and sticking to the consequences and I have let that get me runover so to speak. I plan to use all the strategies and be consistent with what is in the syllabus.

Dealing with Challenging Students | Origin: ED104

Dealing with these students can be very exhausting and I have to admit, at times, I have just wanted to give up because it seems that nothing I was doing was helping. Some ways that I battle this is with projects so they do not just have to sit and listen or looking things up in a book. This seemed to help my inattentive and center-stage kids last year.

Setting the Stage for Success | Origin: ED104

Since I did not go to school for education but rather nursing, the syllabus was not something we worked with other than receiving one for our classes. This course helped me tremendously in learning how to set up my syllabus to be a more useful tool to my students.
