Recommendation for the promotion of Dr. Mohamed Aboutabl to Full Professor at James Madison University I have known Dr. Mohamed Aboutabl since the Spring of 2016, when I was in his CS240: Algorithms and Data Structures class. CS240 is a fundamental course in achieving a Computer Science Degree, as it teaches a student the tools that they need to become a successful problem solver. Dr. Aboutabl taught the section that I had chosen and he made sure to create an open and welcoming environment for all of his students. Whether, we are in or out of the classroom, Dr. Aboutabl always takes the time to answer students’ questions and makes sure that every student understands the materials. Dr. Aboutabl is a professor that I highly respect. Dr. Aboutabl creates a welcoming environment, by treating his students with respect and understanding that most of his students are learning material that they have never seen before. He encourages us to try and answer all of his questions during lecture and even welcomes incorrect answers from the students as a learning opportunity. This is because Dr. Aboutabl has a very unique approach to classes; he is not trying to see how much certain students know, he is …show more content…

Aboutabl’s teaching style is his ability to treat all students as equals by meeting their individual needs and understanding of the material. He truly cares about the students and their success both inside and outside of his class. To ensure in-class success, he gives us all of the tools that we need to learn the material and to gain a full grasp on the concepts we are learning. If we do have difficulty with any of the material or need help with anything school related, Dr. Aboutabl made sure that we knew when he was available, and how to reach him. He was always punctual to his office hours, and was quick to respond to emails.Furthermore, the atmosphere of his class and his teaching helps instill a high standard of integrity within his

I nominate Dr. Nick Lynchard because he’s a very influential teacher and cares deeply about his students. When I tool Psy 101 with Dr. Lynchard he spoke about more than just his subject matter and focused on teaching us things about academia that nobody else does at this level. I’ve never been concerned about how my outward appearance or the way I carried myself would matter in meeting people or getting accepted into better colleges. He taught me about how to get in to graduate school and the politics behind that and what I could expect. He put great stress on the factors of cinching down and doing well in classes that I had little or no interest in and to fully submerge myself in the life on the fields I am interested well before I’m actually

On the other hand, when one describes the professor’s teaching style, it is one of the opportunities to deliver the message to the public. It can also be effective and informative for others when students attempt to pick the right teacher who fits their needs and professional goals.

One of the commitments that must be upheld by educators is the commitment to the student. In order to be committed to the student the educator must maintain an appropriate relationship with the students. Within this relationship the educator is to “[discipline] students justly and fairly [in a way that] does not deliberately embarrass or humiliate them” (NC State Board of Education, 1998). Moreover, when obtaining information about the student in a professional setting the educator is to keep such information confidential unless it is deemed appropriate for professional reasons. Similarly, the educator should “[Refuse] to accept significant gifts, favors, or additional compensation that might influence or appear to influence professional decisions or actions” (NC State Board of Education, 1998).

The first thing she talked about was that students should stay on top their classes and fully understand every chapter in order to move on to the next chapter. She mentioned that concepts in college classes builds up so quickly that if students fall behind, it’s going to be hard for them to catch up again. The next piece of advice she gave was to spend some quality time in every subject outside of class time.

It sets a pattern for life long integrity in all areas of life. Our job as students is to construct knowledge honestly and fairly. A culture of honesty earns a great deal of respect. Integrity is fundamental to everything we do in college, I don’t think we can have genuine learning without integrity.

The students were highly engaged. I could say that the concepts to be learn were explicitly linked to ELLs’ background experience and past learning. I listened to the teacher’s speech and voice projection, it was appropriate (not too slow, not too fast), and she emphasized the importance of being respectful/active listeners. She ensured that each students had sufficient time to respond to her questions, and clarify if a student seemed confused (regarding the objectives). As the students did the group work, Mrs. Carbone foster noticing.
