Another behavioral expectation I would have of my students for the warm-up activity that before they begin the activity, they take time to reflect on the prompts I gave them for the assignment and begin to work quietly and individually. An evaluation method I would use to ensure that my students have an understanding of my behavioral expectations is to have a poster up on my wall that is a reminder of the classroom expectations and pointed out to the students who are not working on the warm-up. The classroom expectations are: RESPECT: your teacher, your peers, and your school, THINK: ask good questions, use your resources, open your mind to new ideas, PARTICIPATE: volunteer in class discussions, do your class work and home work, share your ideas with others. These classroom expectations would have been gone over the first day of school and given to the students in a handout that the students and the parents...

Traditional classes are more suitable for students who are seeking structure, being they have scheduled classes, whereas an online student does not have a particular time to be in class but must adhere to the participation requirements. Traditional classes allow students to have the freedom of managing their time differently compared to online students. In traditional classrooms students voluntarily participate in class discussions, online students are required to attend online forum classes for a minimum of three times a week.

The point was at the teacher-centered end of the spectrum because the different characteristics of the teacher-centered approach describe more the classrooms culture in Saudi Arabia. The teachers in Saudi Arabia preferred lecturing as a teaching methods, this might be because that the teachers had a plan that was assigned by the ministry of education for each course and by lecturing the teacher will have more chance to cover the course in time, and if he/she did not cover the course it will be hard for the student to understand the course of the following year. Some of class that had shorter course subjects the teacher tries to use different methods to teach. In the classroom the instructor’s role is to clarify and interpret the written text and to direct the learning process. The learner’s role is to listen to lectures, taking notes, read the assigned texts and memorize it, and this explains the teacher-centered approach in the two characteristics...
