2 week post

Dr. Burns I did miss the point.

One thing that worked well for me was using a seating chart to separate the students who wanted to talk and socialize with one another instead of paying attention in class. This has led to better classroom management on my part and has solved most of my dicipline problems. Also, students are now getting their work done on time. I have also moved to the back of the room where I can better monitor their computers, making sure they stay on task.

Things that have not work well for me are my lesson plans. I have tried to put too much material in my lesson plans and have not been able to cover all of it. This is not only frustrating to me, but is also frustrating to the students. Because of this, it limited student classroom participation, especially their spontaneity responses. It made me realize that it was better to cover less material adequately than to have to rush through the material.
