Learning about Tuckman's model was nice, I think I might give a mini group assignment to the class and make them define roles, just to see who ends up as group leader in each group. I also got to do a little more brain storming about introductions for my class next year.

I found the article on "Facilitating In-Class Group Work" very informative! I learned how important it is to establish ground rules/expectations at the beginning of any activity (or course);  and to develop and communicate a set of clear instructions. Sometimes I think we assume that students know what we expect. Establishing the expectations ahead of time and clearly stating instructions not only helps students know exactly what they need to do to succeed, but also how they will be assessed for any given activity.

I have learned new ideas and strategies from our discussions and from Dr. Conway's video.  In our discussions I have found some that I would like to implement into my courses.  I have also observed, through our gallery walk activity, examples of how to handle student challenges and how to create a positive forward experience for learners.

I was re-reminded about the importance of setting expectations for students early and often. I am curious to know about how long instructors take to establish the norms (e.g. the first week?) I also learned about different techniques on how to deal with technology use in the classroom.  Good stuff!

I've learned a good model for active listening - showing empathy, re-clarifying, and providing non-evaluative feedback.  These 3-step process would be good to practice regularly so I can be prepared when students may challenge me and my natural reaction may be to go to the defensive.

I have learned how important it is to set up rules and expectations at the beginning of the semester.  While I do have rules and expectations outlined in my syllabus I plan to make an audio recording discussing the rules and expectations (I teach online classes only).  Unfortunately not all students read through the syllabus at the beginning of the semester.  By offering multiple presentation methods will increase students understanding of the importance of the rules and expectations.

I have learned that spending the time up front to make rules and values, can save a lot of time and hassle later on. Some times I think as instructors we expect students to know the rulesand follow them.  Unfortunately I have found with our multi-generation classrooms many of the rules are not known to all students. I think agreeing upon them at the beginning of class helps to make the semester better and bond the class. I also learned some new ways to memorize my students names which I hope will help me!

I know that if an instructor works hard to build relationships with students, taking a genuine interest in their lives in order to learn what they are passionate about and their best learning styles, and shapes curriculum based upon what they learn about their students, then typically students will return the respect and behavior management will be preventative versus reactive.
