General Course Expectations

Let’s break down each statement in the components of the ownership of learning:
Academic Expectations. Academic Honesty. As a college student, you are expected to show integrity in your work and interactions with others. Plagiarism. Plagiarism means presenting someone else's work as your own.
Types of Expectations to SetWeekly routine: What do you expect students to do on a weekly basis?Flexibility: How much flexibility will you allow in grading, assignment topics, and so on?Attendance policies: What is your attendance policy (if any) for synchronous sessions?Late policies: Will you accept late work?More items...•
You can expect the same variety of work online as you would face-to-face. Online courses deliver a mix of quizzes, essays, assignments and group discussions. Depending on the course, you may work together with other students in groups, participate in peer review, or debate a variety of topics on the discussion boards.
How to answer "Why did you choose this course?"Consider your interests. Think about your interests. ... Discuss your career goals. Discuss your career aspirations, and talk about how the course aligns with your career goals. ... Highlight your strengths. ... Focus on positive reasons. ... Be enthusiastic.
Understanding Basic Expectations Be on time. Be prepared for class. Be considerate and respectful. Show respect for school property and other students.
The flexible learning moulds the learner to plan their activities according to their interest and enthusiasm. It also keeps the mind of learner in a pleasant situation that is out of external fear. Finally the study concludes that flexible learning in classroom helps to promote quality education.
I expect myself to:Be kind and loving no matter the situation or how I have been treated.Treat my body with love and kindness by eating a healthy diet and exercising five times per week.Do my job with joy, enthusiasm, and energy.Bring the joy every moment of every day. – Be of service in any way possible.
You have two main objectives when answering the question, “What are your career aspirations?”: Demonstrate that your aspirations align with the company's vision and long-term goals. Show the interviewer how the role will help you gain the skills and experience necessary to achieve your career aspirations.
For example, you can show the hiring manager your ability to make practical goals by saying, "I am interested in the ways this job can help me grow personally and professionally. I am excited to hone my collaboration skills by working with others and to have the chance to see some glimpses into my future career path."
Have passion for the material. Listen and respond to student concerns. Care not only about academics but also about students as people. Realize that students have a life outside of class and not make unreasonable demands on them.
ALL STUDENTS WILL BE EXPECTED: To be prepared for studying each day both mentally and intellectually. To pay attention, work hard and do their best. To read the textbook and other course materials carefully and thoroughly, with the aim of learning the material.
Organize your time and tasks. Time management is important in college and in the real world. Write down classes, work schedule, study time and "play time" on a schedule. You should set a goal to attend every class in every subject.
Student Expectations of Studying at University. A common expectation of students is that a university education will enhance their academic and vocational prospects, but also provide opportunities to become independent and to enjoy themselves (Lowe and Cook, 2003; Kandinko and Mawer, 2013).
A course syllabus is the perfect place to share all of your course expectations. If you don’t know what all should be included, check to see if your institution has a template you can use.
Near your instructor info on your syllabus, add a line about your communication preferences.
Each instructor has a different teaching style, which contributes to a well-rounded education. However, it may be helpful to give students an idea of how you do things. Will you record audio of yourself reading a lecture? Will you allow students to interrupt with questions if you’re teaching live? Will you use different types of assessments?
The warmest welcome you can give as an instructor is a short video in which you briefly go over your credentials, the syllabus, your connection to the course content, your family and hobbies, and anything else of interest. This way, students can immediately put a face to your name.
The most sure-fire way to gauge how well your course expectations are working is to hear from students. Provide them a chance midway through the quarter or semester to anonymously comment on the course thus far. This gives you time to make any necessary adjustments.
If engagement is an online course expectation of yours, embed your course with opportunities for students to interact with you as well as one another.
Every once and a while, a student will ask me, with an incredulous tone, "Do you actually expect me to learn this?" The answer is yes! Please don't complain to me that the material is too hard or that we go too fast. It isn't and we don't. Hundreds of students have mastered the material and I expect you to do the same.
First, I expect you to come to class. While little of what is covered in class cannot be found in the course resources (the textbook or online material), most students find the give and take of a verbal presentation useful.
There are two sad facts of life that you might as well learn now. The first is that you can not succeed in a college-level mathematics or computer science course unless you work on the material outside of class. Strictly speaking, that is an overstatement.
You must live with the consequences of your decisions. I won't give you an extra-credit project or a few extra points at the end of the semester just because you made some poor choices earlier in the semester.
