Hello everybody, just a wee note to say how much I enjoyed the class yesterday and you all engaged very well indeed.
The initial class is of vital importance, as I outline the aims of the unit (assessment numbers still unknown) and to get to know each other.
I really liked the focus of all your comments in the icebreaker task, and I immediately sensed a clear click with all the group members. This is always a good starting point, make no mistake!
Why don't you pop some words in the comments section below, to get used to engaging with the blog? Go on, you know you want to...
Did you enjoy the session with me, were you nervous to speak in class (it is quite OK if you were), did you like hearing all about what your peers had to say? Anything goes, so let me read what you thought about our first meeting together.
Next Monday we will look at moral dilemmas, which is my favourite session. I am sure the chitter chatter will be great, no prep is needed, just a clear and open mind for what is to come. It will be fun and educational, I promise.
Take care and well done again. Comments below welcomed.
Mark
I look forward to some of your comments. I will reply to all of them personally. All the best, Mark

DeleteHi Mark I enjoyed Mondays class and looking forward to the next one.
ReplyDeleteCommunications is the one subject I'm most worried about Due to having dyslexia but after Mondays lesson and knowing the structure and amount of support available I'm feeling alot more confident about this class. Thankyou
Morning Chloe, great to hear from you, and welcome to the blog! Indeed, as we said, there will be a lot of support from you in the class, and within the college if necessary. I look forward to working with you and the rest of the class again on Monday. Have a great rest of the week. All the best, Mark
DeleteLooking forward to getting started was nice meeting you, you made us all feel very at ease.
ReplyDeleteGood evening, Linda. Thank you for taking some time out to make a comment. And thank you for your lovely words. The first session of any class is vital for precisely the reasons you outline. We will have a good session coming up on Monday with the moral dilemmas session I have put together. Lots of chitter chatter and some skills development too. Have a great weekend and see you then. Mark
DeleteHi Mark, I was very nervous yesterday to do my presentation but I am happy it's over and done with. I was very interested in everyone else's presentation especially Emma's I felt she had great information and presented hers very well for her being so nervous!! Everyone done so well and I think that we should all be so proud of ourselves. I feel like this presentation has brought me confidence for the future. Thanks Mark!
