Anytime you misrepresent, you are leading with false information that will eventually lead to confusion and loss of trust. Superlative statements do not really say anything substantial.
It was good to see examples of superlative statements to ensure we are informed on what is unacceptable.
The Affirmative Statements (acceptable) and Superlative Statements (unacceptable) chart is so helpful in determine what statements are acceptable to use when dealing with comment from prospective students
Using facts such a placement and graduation rates and avoiding opinions and superlative statements is one way to avoid misrepresentation.
I have learned that when it comes to graduation, placement, and licensure rate I need to give them exactly the documented numbers and to avoid superlatives.
I intend to apply this by continuing to read the information word for word as Ogle asks us to do. This will keep me from making a misrepresentation when giving the student this information.
From this module, I've learned the importance of accurate representations and full disclosure. I will avoid using superlatives and ensure my statements are supported by facts. This will help students make informed decisions about their education and career goals.
It is very important to not misrepresent information to the students about the programs at the college and to avoid using superlative language.
When giving an opinion about your school, be very careful not to exaggerate, as any comment made must be supported with facts.
That we should not exaggerate when it comes to our school but we must be straightforward and factual!
In this module I learned about the importance of representation and always sticking to the facts. You should never overexagerate the truth and always tell the students the latest accurate information.
Misrepresentation is frightening. As an adjunct professor contracted to work part-time hours, I am not always deeply intertwinde in my College. I would never want to accidently misrepresent anything, and need to be diligent about keep up on current policies and procedures.
our conversation should be direct and not exagerated and if we dont have the answers lead them to the proper source to answer the questions they may have
I learned how superlaitves may give the wrong impression and can even be considered a misrepresentation. Avoiding the use of superlatives and using only facts is a better choice.
The stakes are high when it comes to misrepresentation - it doesn't matter if it was unintentional or a mistake. It has real consequences to the institution and your position.
When engaging new and current students you should always state facts and not just what you want.
