Also think about…• When and how are you going to address student
questions?
• What if you don’t know the answer to a question?
• How are you going to communicate with your students outside of the classroom?
• How will you manage office hours?
Communication

Engage Your Students Through Active Learning During active learning activities, students are…
– Involved in the learning process by doing
– Thinking about what they are learning and doing

Managing Class TimeSome questions you want to ask yourself:
• How much time do I want to spend reviewing information?
• What topics do I want to cover during class?
• How much time do I want to spend on each topic?
• What type of active learning strategies am I going to incorporate?
• How much time will I set aside for answering questions?
• How much time can I spend on other class activities?

Student Attention in the Classroom• Students’ attention lasts about 15 minutes
– (Stuart & Rutherford, 1978; Burns, 1985)
• Lapse in attention as early as 30 seconds into class and then about 5 minutes later and throughout the class in shorter intervals (Bunce et al., 2010)
• Fewer lapses during student-centered learning activities (i.e. demonstrations, clicker use)
• Fewer lapses during lecture following a student-centered activity
So what does this mean???

Change things up about every 15 minutes
Come up with a class plan!

Sensitive Topics• Plan ahead:
– Set the tone early– Include explanation in syllabus– Have specific objective for discussion
• Facilitate discussion; don’t dominate it
• Discuss with other TAs/professors:– Ideas– Methods– Experiences
• Remind students to be respectful
![Page 22: Classroom Management - Program for Instructional Excellence · Classroom Management Ellie Fenton Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics. Ashley Artese.

Sensitive Topics
• Have you taught sensitive topics in your classes?
• How did you handle them?
• What advice could you give to others?
![Page 23: Classroom Management - Program for Instructional Excellence · Classroom Management Ellie Fenton Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics. Ashley Artese. Department of Nutrition,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f0792ba7e708231d41da834/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Preventing and Managing Challenging Classroom Situations• Ideas for how to handle times when students…
– Come to class unprepared– Challenge what the instructor says– Sleep/don’t pay attention – Use cell phones/texting – Monopolize discussions– Are disruptive or off-topic – Are tardy/leave early– Cheat on exams or homework– Dispute their grades– Have trouble working together on projects (group dynamics)
![Page 24: Classroom Management - Program for Instructional Excellence · Classroom Management Ellie Fenton Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics. Ashley Artese. Department of Nutrition,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f0792ba7e708231d41da834/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Handling Specific Situations• Come to class unprepared
– Give short, periodic quizzes– Assign questions to be completed by class time– Have students responsible for presenting specific topics in class
• Challenge what the instructor says– Preventative strategies – Don’t react/maintain composure– Stop the confrontation and ask the student to discuss the issue with you after
class– Ask your advisor or colleague to observe the class
![Page 25: Classroom Management - Program for Instructional Excellence · Classroom Management Ellie Fenton Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics. Ashley Artese. Department of Nutrition,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f0792ba7e708231d41da834/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Handling Specific Situations• Sleep/don’t pay attention
– Try using small groups– break up the lecture with activities– Make students take notes– Move around the classroom– Have students change their seats– Discuss this issue with the student after class
• Use cell phones/texting– Set clear expectations at the beginning of the semester– Give a one-minute “cell phone break”– Make the cell phones useful during class– Move around the room
![Page 26: Classroom Management - Program for Instructional Excellence · Classroom Management Ellie Fenton Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics. Ashley Artese. Department of Nutrition,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f0792ba7e708231d41da834/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Handling Specific Situations• Monopolize discussions
– Set expectations for class participation– Think-pair-share– Include class participation as part of students’ grade– Use turn-taking strategies– Provide students with enough time to come up with an answer
• Are disruptive or off-topic– Quizzes at the beginning of class– Points for staying in class the whole time– Give them a reason to stay– Talk to the student
![Page 27: Classroom Management - Program for Instructional Excellence · Classroom Management Ellie Fenton Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics. Ashley Artese. Department of Nutrition,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f0792ba7e708231d41da834/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Are tardy or leave early– Quizzes at the beginning of class– Points for staying in class the whole time– Give them a reason to stay– Talk to the student
• Cheat on exams or homework/plagiarism– Review academic honor policy at the beginning of the semester– Review consequences of academic dishonesty– Know the university’s process for reporting academic honor allegations– Create multiple versions of exams– Use SafeAssign or Turnitin for papers
Handling Specific Situations
![Page 28: Classroom Management - Program for Instructional Excellence · Classroom Management Ellie Fenton Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics. Ashley Artese. Department of Nutrition,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f0792ba7e708231d41da834/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Dispute their grades– Preventative Strategies
– Have a detailed grading rubric and refer back to it– Have a clear policy on grade reviews– Provide feedback when grading – Move through the first page on all exams before going onto the second
– 24-hour rule– Emphasize fairness and that grades are “earned” not “given”
• Have trouble working together on projects (group dynamics)– Use team-building exercises– Peer assessment– Provide some class time for group work– Request interim reports– Change up group members throughout the semester– Thoughtfully create groups
Handling Specific Situations
