Session One
Two Strategies Learned students. Allowing for all students to feel valued while still keeping the
momentum of the class.
During Session
& She uses open texts for reading which allows for the information directly
Notes on Applying them to from the source.
My Classroom
I am going to incorporate the use of pre-reading and small group discussion
to foster larger group participation in both my HCE and future PTA courses.
Class management was great to experience, as she it handled differently
than I would, and it was great to experience and consider different ways to
manage student personalities. The open texts are a great option but more
difficulty to incorporate in health care, as there are no specific texts that I am
aware of.
Used a study guide as the question based outline for each section on
Canvas, lecture posted under the guide heading. Each topic in the study
guide pertained to a course objective and subsequent test question.
Session Two
Two Strategies Learned PowerPoint presentation without use of words, only picture and charts to

Lecture, break, quiz based upon current lecture. Non graded but
used to help student focus on important topics.
Two Strategies Learned
During Session PowerPoint presents very simple with topic and outline of content to
& be covered, very little information. All information give in conversation
Notes on Applying them to lecture style with student participation for critical thinking. Lots of
My Classroom discussion and questions to student during each slide.
I like the use of case studies to start the class and connect to
previous topics. I also like the mid lecture non-graded quiz and would
like to incorporate both into my classes. I would also like to use the
probing questions based upon cases and patient scenarios after
concept is introduced to encourage critical thinking.
How to assess if it was the way I presented the topic, the way
the question was worded or the students preparation for the
exam. I offered a make up in the form of extra credit for the
students only covering topics that tested poorly. We discussed
the benefits and downfalls of doing it this way.
Notes on Experience and
Discussion Points During She indicated that my classroom management and engagement
Follow-Up Meeting of the students was good. We are going to follow up on some of
the questions I posed to her which were: how to accurately
determine if its my presentation of the material or the student
engagement and methods to overcome without using "extra
credit".
