Evaluating the students is important in order to prepare them for their future. As an instructor, when evaluating them, one should use the right methods so that they can demonstrate content mastery.  When grading your students, I also liked the tip of eliminating the use of class participation points altogether and just use the attendance and tardy section for giving them points as participation points could be hard to decide sometimes. 

There were a lot of things that I learned in this module. First always need to have Plan B in place if Plan A doesn't work. Doing handouts and worksheets with students can be great tools for active engagement. Also, always break the lesson plan into learning units that are achievable!

How to make effective PowerPoints and considering different senses when teaching students is one of my main takeaways from this course.  Sometimes we only think that vision and hearing are the main senses students learn from, but it is important to consider touch, smell too. I really liked the analogy of drinking the coffee and comparing it with using all the senses. Thanks!

Definitely! Motivation plays a big role and enhances the overall learning process. Students learn with much interest if they are motivated to learn about the topic, and then they want to apply it further in their careers from this overall process. Furthermore, instructor's motivation and enthusiasm toward teaching the content is equally important.
