I hope I take all of this and put it into my learning to become a better student. <br />4)For a good teacher, I expect them to be laid back but serious about what their doing. I also expect a good teacher to be reasonable with situations and understand what students are going through. <br />5)What will make this a great class is a fun teacher and involved students. <br />6)To make this class the best is for everyone to imply the ‘golden rule,’ treat people the way they want to be treated and that everyone has a great time learning about American Literature.emily mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16343494228245733055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267806874116091969.post-50657140421040851562009-09-05T13:04:05.638-06:002009-09-05T13:04:05.638-06:001.

In other words make myself understand and succeed, if I don't I am only hurting myself.<br />3. A good student is someone who is punctual, interested, and hard working, not necessarily someone who is perfect in all of their class work, it is more than that.<br />4. As a teacher it is helpful to me if you create a good plan or outline of what we are going to be learning, just an over view. Nothing big just a simple talk about whats up<br />5. I would love to see everyone in the class have a voice and be able to hear their opinions. It is interesting what others say.<br />6. I think the class needs to have a lot of interaction as a whole. Basically, everyone speaking and sharing their individual ideas.Kayla R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17951754930358526850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267806874116091969.post-51424002019118653292009-08-26T23:23:51.273-06:002009-08-26T23:23:51.273-06:001.

What you get out of your learning will help you in everyday life. Therefore it should be taken very serious.<br /><br />2) My role as a learner is to take what I learn and embrace it. I need to really take it in not just because it will help me for the rest of my life, but because it helps me prepare for it.<br /><br />3) To be a good learner you have to meet a certain standard, this standard is being prepare for class and willing to learn. This mean the student has to have the want to learn and will do what it takes to learn.<br /><br />4) What I expect of a good teacher is them to be able to teach people with different teaching strategies. I think this because people like me who are visual learners can’t just sit and listen to a lecture. Also they should be able to mix things up not do the same thing everyday.<br /><br />5) One exception I would make to the class is alot of group work.<br /><br />6) One thing that would help is if everyone got along and the class just had a fun environment.nick Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09864405001218972893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267806874116091969.post-68658600215419996142009-08-23T19:49:18.679-06:002009-08-23T19:49:18.679-06:001.Learning is extremely important in all life.

Someone who takes there learning seriously might be able to go farther in life because of the fact that they know more. <br /><br />2) My role as a learner is to take what ever I learn and try to incorporate it in my everyday life. I should also be willing to learn new things and be excited about it.<br /><br />3) To be a good learner, a student needs to be willing to learn. They need to have an open mind, or at least be able to hear and see things and have an opinion about it.<br /><br />4) I think a good teacher should have different teaching strategies. That way is a student comes in because they don't understand something the teacher can try different ways to help the student. I also think that a teacher should be happy to help anyone. Even if a student is not in there class, they can come and ask for help.<br /><br />5) I think having no one sleeping is class is a good expectation. Because its first hour there will be times when people want to sleep. If that doesn't work, I think our class should not be intimidating. Everyone should be comfortable talking to everyone.<br /><br />6) I think fun should come a little from the teacher. Our teacher should be able to make jokes about random things, but also about what we are doing. Along the lines of fun, our class should be active. Not just a class that reads a book and writes a paper about it. We should be able to do group discussions, or read aloud. That way we can still have fun but the class is still learning.Taylor K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15810870181326378041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267806874116091969.post-35463922030861706122009-08-23T17:59:50.353-06:002009-08-23T17:59:50.353-06:001.

The value of learning is not just to get a good...1. The value of learning is not just to get a good grade. We learn so that we can succeed. This doesn’t just apply to academic success, but to a whole range of successes. I learn to do things, because I’m not perfect. If I was perfect there would be no need for learning. Learning is used so that the same mistake isn’t made twice. <br />2. My role as a learner is to work hard, have goals, fail, pick myself back up after failure, and try again. Being a good learner takes persistence and effort. Learning takes understanding. If I didn’t understand what people were trying to teach me I would never learn. <br />3. There are many qualities that make a good student. Being a good student takes patience, hard work, and organization, but the most important quality of a good student is a good attitude. If a student has a bad attitude there isn’t much chance of progression. If a student is apathetic towards what they are being taught then there is little likelihood of them succeeding. No matter how good the teacher is, if the student doesn’t want to learn, then they won’t learn. <br />4. A good teacher needs to like her job. If she doesn’t like her job, the students aren’t going to want to listen to what she has to say. If a teacher goes to work for the sole purpose of getting paid she needs to find another job. A good teacher needs to respect her students. If she respects them they will most likely respect her as well. A good teacher listens as well as teaches. <br />5. I expect this class to be hard, but I also expect it to be fun. I didn’t have to take this class, so I expect to comprehensively enjoy it. I expect that by the end of this year I will be better at both understanding text and applying my thoughts onto paper.<br />6. In order for this class to be productive and create a fun learning environment there needs to be a push for students to care about their work and be proud of it. If work is just done for the purpose of a grade it makes class very dull.Sean J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06198963519909930180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267806874116091969.post-15968214628261012702009-08-23T17:36:32.281-06:002009-08-23T17:36:32.281-06:001)The value of learning is the ability to take wha...1)The value of learning is the ability to take what you have learned and experienced and place it into your daily life. <br />2)My role as a learner is to learn for the information and not for the letter grade.<br />3)I expect myself to give 100%, focus at the task at hand, and learn as much as I can in the given time.<br />4)I expect a good teacher to make the material understandable, entertaining, and the ability to relate to the students.<br />5)I expect there to be several hands-on activities, group projects, and an open environment.<br />6)This class needs to have activities that relate to the topic at hand, an open environment, and entertaining discussions.GraceFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09134717350382567482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267806874116091969.post-59135484323489672742009-08-23T16:26:36.203-06:002009-08-23T16:26:36.203-06:001)Hmm, it's to reach your full potential in kn...1)Hmm, it's to reach your full potential in knowledge, and apply it to real world situations. Having knowledge means you can accomplish more in life than others and gain more respect. <br /><br />2) My role as a learner is to learn as much as I can, and the only way to do that, is waste a third of my life in a classroom. <br /><br />3) Four Words, "Sit down and shutup." No but really, myself as a student I ask questions and go in for help, I try my best and do my homework. For other students and classmates, i ask for nothing but respect. I absulutly hate it when another student says something like "What kind of a question is that?? It's stupid".<br /><br />4)I like to see a teacher treating his/her students with respect, and helping his/her students when they need help.<br /><br />5) I expect the class to help each other out, and to be social. I hate to see kids who sit in groups and don't say a word.<br /><br />6)This class needs to have a productive learning enviornment.

If it wasn't for learning, I would have no idea what half the things around me are and how they work.<br /><br />2. My role as a learner is to be able to pay attention and understand the taught material rather than take it in and forget it a few weeks later.<br /><br />3. I think a good student is someone who pays attention in class and not only understands the material, but is able to teach it to someone else who doesn't understand.<br /><br />4. I think a quality teacher is someone who can teach the material thoroughly and understandable but also in a fun and entertaining way.<br /><br />5. I would like this class to have on open environment where it would be ok to start having a discussion.<br /><br />6.

I consider learning to be the most important thing that you can do because a person who takes advantage of their education and their school experience become well rounded and successful in life.<br /><br />2) As a learner my personal goal is to is to make sure I get something out of my lessons weather its just typing faster or how to write prompts properly.<br /><br />3) A good student is a person who is respectful to both the teacher and the students. They’re the type of person who gives their best but doesn't beat up on themselves when they don't do perfectly.<br /><br />4) My expectations for the teacher is that she challenges us while making it enjoyable so I can take something away form the class itself.<br /><br />5) One expectation I have for this class is that we will be preparing for the ACT it may not be the most enjoyable thing to do but I want to be as prepared as possible for it.<br /><br />6) This question is kind of like the other questions, for me personally I would be most productive in a comfortable, open, and respective environment.Hillary Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01737231960208538800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5267806874116091969.post-71423434129106690482009-08-23T14:00:05.157-06:002009-08-23T14:00:05.157-06:001.The value of learning is what you get out of all...1.The value of learning is what you get out of all life experiences that help you prepare for your future.<br />2.My role as a learner is to take what I need from class to get myself what I need out of life and school.

The amount of knowledge that the human brain is able to hold is unheard of. 2) My role as a learner is to take in as much that is given to me. 3) A "good student" would turn everything in, try there hardest, and always give a 100%. 4) I expect the teacher to always be open to help their students and give honest feed back.<br />5) This class should be fun and help us learn at the same time and let us take something from this class to the next year and college.<br />6) This class would be really fun if we could work in groups and listen to music.

In my case, I need to listen to a lecture and turn my assignments in on time. When I do this, I am a good student.<br />4) To me, a good teacher is someone who teaches life. Someone who teaches us skills we need to know for different real world scenarios. <br />5) I expect this class to be a group learning environment than an individual one. I feel like we would all progress more as learners by doing class discussions opposed to busy work.<br />6) For this class to be a fun productive class each student and teacher has to follow their own individual responsibility. We as students, have to give 100% effort to learn what is being taught and be responsible enough to turn assignments in on time.
