To possess seventeen decades, I was looking to brand name me personally just like the teacher just who worries reliability, teamwork, demonstrations, and going outside of an individual’s safe place. This remark can it for me personally!<\/p>\n
If I could rate this student’s rating, I’d rate it as \u201cAWESOME\u201d (to use ratemyprofessor’s rating terminology). The student was honest, accurate, and used examples to illustrate how I can be a \u201cBad<\/u>\u201d choice for many undergraduates.<\/p>\n
New student can make 8 key points to tell possible people of how i manage my class. Why do We accept this student’s rating?<\/p>\n
1. *Not very pleasant. When undergraduates are registered for my marketing course at the University of Illinois-at Chicago, I expect them to attend every class. Why would a manager be pleasant when a team member fails to show up for work? My students work in teams. When students skip class, it thwarts plans to build team ca from gaining any momentum, and stands in the way of the team’s overall productivity. When their unprofessional conduct adversely affects their team members, I am *not very pleasant<\/u>.<\/p>\n
2. *Attendance necessary and you will impacts grades, therefore does getting tardy<\/u>. I run a workshop called, \u201cProfessionalism in the Workplace\u201d for millennials and the first thing I tell them is to arrive a little early for every meeting and event they have committed to attending (and even earlier if they are the presenter). Why would I allow my students to skip class and be tardy?<\/p>\n
3. *Hard grader<\/u>. How can all students be “A” or “B” (or even “C”) students? Some will under-perform and fail–kind of like the workplace.<\/p>\n
4. *Numerous class work<\/u>. Why would Corporate America isolate their marketing talent and have staff operate in a silo when so much more progress can be made (and fun to be had) by working in teams? Why would a work ethic to train students for corporate life? I expect my marketing students to interact well with others and to be rock star teammates.<\/p>\n
5. *Demonstrations<\/u>. Training students to give professional presentations is one of my favorite things to do. My students are not permitted to have notecards or to read directly off their PowerPoint slides. They must confidently take questions from the audience throughout their presentation and be able to refocus after being interrupted with consecutive questions. They also need to watch the time (no cue cards) and cut their material on the fly to end on time. Students present in business professional attire and submit a professional headshot along with their PowerPoint slides. Remember, I’m a *difficult grader<\/u> so if they arrive late, wear a baseball cap to present, or submit a headshot showing too much skin, they drop a full letter grade.<\/p>\n
6. *Class training<\/u>. I host several team events that encourage students to connect with their inner child, which then invites creativity and collaboration.<\/p>\n
\u00b7 Scavenger See<\/u>: Race around campus, Greektown and Little Italy for different size straws, two identical rocks, and other similarly odd items.<\/p>\n
\u00b7 Relays<\/u>: On a beautiful Fall day, students are reminded to enjoy the simple things in life like laughing, holding hands, and cheering others on.<\/p>\n
