I must also be prepared to adopt multiple roles in the classroom (facilitator, teacher, instructor,
coach, consultant, counselor, and mentor). I need to be prepared to seamlessly transition between
these roles to effectively contribute to student learning. For my primary role as a facilitator, flexibility
also includes the ability to diagnose and intervene when necessary to enhance learning and support
individual and group growth. Additional areas of flexibility include technical assistance, course
management, and student administration when required. To establish and maintain competence as a
facilitator, I must be skillful in the execution of both content and process. First, I must completely
understand the lesson material so that I don’t require notes and I am conversational on relevant content
and process topics. Second, I must know how to diagnose student and group behaviors and recognize
when and how to intervene. And third, I must be able to use my prior experiences as an instructor and
and leader to reinforce, but not dominate, classroom discussions. We desire our students to achieve
“movement” while attending our classes. As a facilitator, I also desire to achieve movement though
self-study, classroom experience, and training/certifications. Additionally, I can increase and
maintain competence as a facilitator by consistently asking for feedback from peers, students, and
superiors; focusing on faculty development; leveraging the expertise of peer faculty; and being a team
player in our organization.
Additionally, my life philosophy and priorities are faith, family, and Country, with emphasis
on competence, caring, and balance. Therefore, I can further achieve authenticity by “being myself”
in the classroom and “modeling personal and ASISTian values.”
