I've learned that gaging what my students already know is a key step in creating a lesson plan and while there are several ways to do this including ice breakers and questionnaires, A pre-test will be the best course of action for my subject.
I think getting the students to provide content that helped them will help the class overall in the long term. This is a good idea.
Good planning, a simple assessment test and a brief handout of personal info such as name hobbies current working enviornment etc... are tools I will be implementing.
The material should be able to enhance the knowledge of those who already have a solid knowledge base, as well as bring struggling students up to speed. Using a variety of material for presentations can help engagement.
Time management is essential for creating a lesson plan that works in the allotted time of the course.

Ask questions to see what your students already know.
It is important to use many resources when planning your lessons. Pretests allow you to have an understanding of what students already know, what skills they have and what skills they need to learn.
Be able to accommodate to each student as each student is different and learns in different ways
My experience as an instructor has taught me the importance of preparation and time management. I have experienced both the compression factor and not completing my lesson before the end of class. This module did a good job of preparing new instructors to avoid these mistakes.
The information on time compression was valuable.
Use assessment strategies to learn as much as you can about your students. become flexible with what your lesson plan is and adapt to what students may already know. By utilizing pretests and gathering information about pre-existing knowledge that your students may already know, you can adapt and make your lesson plan not as boring and keep students engaged.
Through this course, I learned that there are a lot of things that we need to keep in mind before preparing a lesson plan for the class. We need to make changes in the lesson plans for each set of class. One lesson plan may not completely fulfil the requirements of the next set of students even though the contents to be covered may be the same. Instructors need to be flexible and have a plan B always ready incase your main plan doesn't work.
Be ready when students have a question. Try to stay on the same subject you are about to teach.
figure out what your students may or may not know prior to the start of the lesson.
Always be prepared to give the lesson and stay on time. If there is a time crunch, have an alternate lesson plan if needed. Timing is crucial to get the material across to the student. Doing these things will let the students know that you are organized, and as a result they will respect the instructor and stay engaged.
Nice lesson. Everything described here is vital for the teaching career.

Plan and plan for changes and compression, have extra or the next lesson ready to go, just in case. And also be prepared to push back lessons as it may take longer than expected to teach a lesson, be adaptive
Preparing for and creating lesson plans begins with simply deciding what is necessary and needs to be taught to your students.
