Found this module extremely helpful
As I am a "new" instructor, I found this module extremely helpful. I have a better understanding of how to use questioning in the classroom. I found the Harvard video regarding "The Three Characteristics of Questions" particularly useful. Moving forward, I will utilize more of these techniques in the classroom.

Hi, Laura- I, too, am a new instructor after 40 years of clinical work. This total adjustment of preparing and relating ideas to students has been challenging but so rewarding. This module has helped me better understand the wide variety of learning approaches that are within my classroom walls.
Hi Linda, Wow - what a wealth of knowledge and experience you can share with your students!

I have been a nurse for 40 years and have been teaching theory and skills for several years.Nurses never quit learning and I found this course to be very informative. Although I have implemented some of these techniques I learned an even bettter approach through this course.

I agree, this module has been very helpful. I especially appreciate the mention of the wait time after asking a question. This does many things; it keeps me from answering it myself, it gives students time to formulate and answer, and it gives the more reserved student a chance to answer.
