About me

Computer Instructor at a career college.  I have only been teaching at this level for 1 year.  Prior to this I taught 6th grade math.

Interests

i am always looking for ways to engage students to the theory part of introduction to computers

Skills

masters in instructional technology

Activity

Learning some of the State and Federal guidelines an institution must follow was very interesting.

I have just completed ED106 Enhancing Student Learning.  I can't wait to try some of the suggestions from this forum.  Being a new instructor at this level, I am always looking for ways to help me connect with my students and help them become successful individuals.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Forum 105: Instruction Planning for the Student.  I plan to use some of the suggestions from the session in my teaching.  I also plan to rewrite parts of my syllabus.  I thought my syllabus was clear but after completing this session I really need to rewrite it and make it clearer for students.

Discussion Comment
I think field trips are a GREAT way to connect the course information with real life work experiences. Also including time for Q&A with a couple of employees of different status helps connect the experience and even motivate the students to want to excel at their studies.
