How Can I Use Knowledge of the Learner to Become a Better Teacher?
This is a category in which I feel I did not learn much in. Perhaps the information relayed to me was not covered in such a way that I could take anything away from it. If I could answer this question, I believe that using the knowledge of the learner will help me become a better teacher because I will understand the ways in which a student learns. I know that certain teaching methods are effective for certain students. Not every student will be the same and learn in the same way, therefore, I need to be able to know, understand, and use all teaching methods within my classroom.

Like I said, this was the only area in which I feel I did not learn all I could have. I have many questions and hopefully as my classes continue here at UMF, they will be answered and I will be able to fully understand how knowledge of the learner will help me become a better teacher.
