“Guiding Principles”
![Page 4: Foundations of Teaching](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062412/58cfa86c1a28ab6b088b5941/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Create an “Employer Environment”In your classroom, you are the “professional” and they are the “employee”
Professionalism is a learned behavior
Stanbridge College’s curriculum models the skills needed to be successful – not the abstract
Including samples from your professional experience is expected and a definite “best practice
Make sure to avoid biased or opinionated statements
If it is not part of the career, it doesn’t belong in the classroom

It’s easy to lose sight of graduation – help your students maintain focus
“I know … I use this technique when working with a patient, and so will you when you become an OTA”
It is all about the “Certification or Licensure”“This is a subject that you will see on the NCLEX…”“The CCNC question about this may sound like …”
Teach in the future tense“When you see …, then this is how you will need to respond ….”

You are the working professional – speak with guidance and direction
“This strategy will work” rather than “You might want to try …”
“If you encounter (a problem), then react by (response)” rather than “… might happen and if so, you can try …”
If a question comes up that at the time it is asked, respond immediately.
Provide an answer based on fact, or Respond by saying, “I need to look into this and get back to you (later today or at our next class)”

The moment we get to know our students and their situations their attendance, interest and success improves dramatically.
What are their backgrounds? What are their challenges? What are their dreams? Who are they really here for?
By displaying empathy for their situation, we validate their worth
“Some people think only intellect counts: knowing how to solve problems, knowing how to get by, knowing how to identify an advantage and seize it. But the functions of intellect are insufficient without courage, love, friendship, compassion and empathy.”

The Stanbridge curriculum has been developed to prepare the students to accomplish two primary goals:
Gain the knowledge that enables the student to successfully pass the appropriate licensure examination
Gain the skills and confidence that enables the student to succeed as a professional
Instructors are expected to adhere to the curriculum by:
Following the published syllabi Following the expected schedule and times Refraining from any comments that are less than supportive or
contradictive of the program“I know it says to insert the catheter that way, but I really think you
should do it this way.”

An instructor’s voice is their most important “Instructional Aide” – with this in mind
Vary your volume and tone for emphasis Speak to the entire room Be the “Human Highlighter”
“Be sure and mark this slide…”“This concept will probably be on your next test”“There will be 2-3 questions on this area on the NCLEX”
“Work the room” – be a “mobile instructor” Walking the aisle assures students focus Walking the aisle elevates chances of “social networking
opportunities”

None of us like to hear a student say “I’m paying $50000 for this education and …”, but come to think of it, they are and our commitment to them includes –
Treating them with respect – This includes the way we teach them (an adult shouldn’t be asked to read aloud from a text or be given ‘busy work’ to fill the clock)
Challenging them in the classroom We’re training them to be professionals where individuals earn they rewards.
Accepting that students do have lives away from Stanbridge and possible an occasional crisis and we help them through these times.

Education is a collaborative experience
Stanbridge instructors let the class do the thinking and talking
We ask “open ended questions”We put numerous “topics on the table”
We “fuel the fire” of discussion by inserting effective anecdotes from our professional experience.
