What would I do differently? I can honestly say that after each
class I try to make mental notes on what to do different in my daily plans or
with the specific class for the future reference. I want to perfect my lesson
plans and teaching style to the best of my ability. In saying all of this there
is not one particular thing I would do differently there is a number of things
I need to change and perfect. For example, I do an ethical project in my
introduction class. For the project I let the students choose their own groups
and their own topics. In the future I will not let them pick the topic and I
will limit the groups to just a partner assignment and I will pick their
partner and not let them have so much 'freedom."
I know exactly what you mean! I tell my students that I literally learn something new about teaching EVERYDAY! What to do...what NOT to do...How to improve a project...How to teach a topic better. We learn just as much as the students learn...Sometimes I just wish they new that. :)
