Instructor Policies

I will utilize team tactics for learners that have an interpersonal intelligence inclination, they will develop cooperative learning skills as they solve problems, answer questions, create learning games, brainstorm ideas and discuss the present theme together. In the case of students with Intrapersonal Intelligence, they will explore

One of the main objectives at Walden University is to create an online educational learning environment that prepares a student to excel in corporate America. Students are given the opportunity to particate in group projects which can be rewarding yet challenging. In the online learning community one of the most important advantages of being part of a team is the ability to learn about different cultures values, beliefs and opinions. There is also a unified decision-making process where teammembers can collaborate, and work together to accomplish their shared goals.

This strategy will assist with promoting and interpreting feedback among the students. I hope it will extend the learning. The Visible purposeful empowering learns together facilitate learning together in small groups. Students are accustomed to receiving feedback from adults but not peers. I want the students to learn to critique to better themselves and their peers. Students should think of themselves as a source of knowledge to others. (Krechevsky, p.121). They need to offer, accept feedback.

If there is Policy violation, the College may restrict access to IT Resources pending completion of an investigation. When it finds a Policy violation, the College will exercise its rights to take appropriate disciplinary action including, but not limited to,

• Maximise the feedback that all learners gain from both us and from each other, and adjust the feedback processes towards those that are most effective for learners as individuals.

The system that I am currently employed by has a strict policy on accepting gifts from students, co-workers, and collection of money for gifts outside of very specific guidelines. According to West Carroll Special School District policy manual (2016) “Prohibits excepting gifts from students unless the gift is of token value only”. This policy goes on the to say “Individuals of the board will refrain from giving gifts to staff members who exercise administrative or supervisory roles over them, directly or indirectly. This policy also expresses how collections of money and discouraged outside of bereavements or serious illness as this policy and subparts are enforced to discourage misuse of funds and fraternization between personnel.

I will bring in community business members for further instruction, and students will be able to communicate with those members in a professional learning relationship. In respects to my rules and procedures, I will plan from bell to bell, inhibiting large chunks of time for misbehavior (Smith 2012) and setting the expectation that learning is paramount in my classroom. Upon entering my classroom students will begin work immediately by logging on to their computers, opening their journals and responding to a quote picked by one of their classmates. This activity helps the students with their typing, their writing, and critical thinking. Throughout the coursework students will fill out self-assessments regarding their level of cooperation and effort, and they will also evaluate their team members for effectiveness and cooperation. These reflective strategies will help students realize their worth, that effort matters, and help them develop cooperation and responsibility within

The identified aspects such as interdependence, task cohesion, psychological security, and group effectiveness turned out to be crucial for the engagement in team learning behavior in teams, which in turn gives rise to mutually shared cognition, in turn leading to higher perceived team

To begin planning a training for facilitators in online education, there are vital criterion which must be addressed. Included in this beginning information file are such details as assumed current skills and experiences, and level of current subject mastery. Goals for the cohort as well as individual goals for the trainees must be established and set forth, and measurable objectives must be determined to track both the success of the trainees and the program itself.

There are many important elements that effect how a learning team behaves and the processes that a learning team chooses to complete tasks and reach desired goals. The current learning team has established roles and responsibilities, time management skills, and decision making strategies that allow the team to work up to it 's full potential. The learning team has maintained a level of trust and responsibility to one another that must exist in order for the team to remain successful

Not only will I evaluate each student in my group, but I also will review our full value contract and seeing how well we followed it. The last thing that will be in this paper is the parts of the project and the actions of others that I believe went well and the parts that I believe did not go as I thought they would. All together the parts of this paper will sum up how the communication and ability to follow through or not with individual tasks effected the overall group and ability to create a successful program.

Poor conflict management, personality differences and unresolved emotional issues, and poor client management are all problems that might occur throughout a group project (Forman and Katsky 25). Poor conflict management happens when teams are unable to resolve issues. Teams avoid conflict and agree on decisions that they may internally disagree on. This can build up resentment. Each team member has different needs, styles, and agendas (Forman and Katsky 25). The student’s motivation on a project can range from a mere requirement to a personal task. Work styles vary in small group situations. Some students are very structured and scrupulous, while others may be more creative and less organized.

In order to minimize the possibility of social loafing, we engaged in free debate without formality and constraint. At the beginning of every project, we delegated portions of the project to each team member in terms of printing out the grading rubric, rechecking grammar errors, and uploading files on time. Each member was responsible for their own duties which helped us cooperate well with one another, it also helped our projects gradually increase from one to the next.

After reading through the assigned material I felt like I had been educated to a higher level of understanding human learning concepts. The attributes presented focused on four key concepts: investigation, analytical thinking, effective communication, and collaboration (Bethel University, 2013). I am using investigative skills in my discussion post by drawing my thoughts together with the information provided and coming to my own conclusions based on what I have learned. I can analyze information provided by classmates in their discussion posts to form my own conclusions and provide feedback. This type of communication is effective for promoting concerns and feelings that we each may share. Once the discussion is subsided, it is important for me to collaborate other student’s ideas with my own. By following the Andragogic learning style, I am being shown how to find information that I need to know to complete each task provided. This type of learning allows me to explore independent research and conduct my own theories and conclusions as I learn. I believe that this type of learning is better suited for educating adults. It promotes the student to search and find the information that they need to know, but with a map of where to go. I plan on using each of the concepts I have learned about in every discussion post I reply to. Communication is the most effective tool for learning if applied properly.

Strengths for our team include the fact that our group consists of upper level, business majors who have studied various aspects of business theory and knowledge. This knowledge will be used to the best of the group’s ability to develop and present a well-rounded final project. One notable weakness for our group is that we are having to communicate over a distance rather than work together in a single setting. This provides some obstacles as e-mail communication is often tedious when it comes to working together in a group. However, opportunity wise, our group consists of different minded members who can provide various and diverse insights for our group project. As a group our biggest threat is mostly time and communication. Because this class ranges over a few short weeks it is imperative that our group is mindful of deadlines as well as maintaining clear communication between all members.
