Coming to class prepared - and learning from mistakes I ve made --learning to move on and make note of what better to do next time.

Also, learning how to handle the "silent student" in a way that wont embarrass them and help them in whatever challenges they may be facing

I like the idea of taking 20 minutes after your class to make notes about how you think your class went--why did it go smoothly and work or what you might need to change.

Also the grounded policy of late assignments--I think all students --no matter the age --will for whatever reason -have the response at some point--"Oh I didn't know this was due"

Mini-lectures are a successful way to keep students engaged-15-18 minutes is most adults attention-span

Giving students study guides and tips for studying in your particular class/subject

The importance of knowing the goals, and objectives at the very beginning of your class start!

This is what I try to do --but this encourages me to improve on this..

Show the students you love what you are teaching-you are excited about what you do and show them that you love them!!
