Being prepared before class is key. As well as creating and providing a detailed syllabus.
A syllabus is an effective way to keep both you and the students on track and lay out the expectations you have for them.
I have learned how planning and preparedness are crucial to the momentum of the courses and very helpful for keeping on track.
I learned how important it is to be intentional with planning and preparation. Having clear goals and a structured plan makes the learning experience smother for both the instuctor and the students. I also realized that flexibility is just as important because plans need room to adjust based on how learners respond. Moving forward, I plan to apply this by setting clear objectives, organizing materials ahead of time, and building in time to reflect and adapt after each lesson.
creating a syllabus gives both the students and the instructor a way to be organized and prepared.
My take away from this session - is how important the syllabus is to the student and instructor.
I learned that good planning and preparation help create a clear and helpful learning setting. Making sure that the instructor is prepared, avoiding distraction and confusion to ensure that the subject matter is presented clearly.
arriving early to class allows time to prepare for a good instructional class, I also have to teach 2 different classes the same information so keeping notes on items to be covered is a good way to ensure both classes receive the same information,
Pre planning and lining up subject of the day is important.When preparation meets opportunity that will spell success.Your students expect for you to be prepared and the students also should be prepared.The instuctors expectation.
I have learned that the need for planning and preparation is great. The greater the planning and preparation the better things are going to go. I believe it relates to anything else in life, the more you put into it early on, the better the outcome will be.
In this module, I learned that good planning and preparation help create a clear and helpful learning setting. There should be clear goals, rules, and ways to grade in a well-organized schedule so that students know what they will learn and how they will be graded. I will use this by making my syllabus thorough and easy for students to understand so they feel confident and inspired immediately.
I learned the specifics of what makes a useful objective as well as factors that can contribute to better planning and preparation of the course.
Having a road map will help to keep both the instructor and the students on track
It is important to develop a checklist prior to first day of a new student cohort
Having a syllabus provides an guideline for the course and also lays out the expectations from the beginning. It can be used as a reference for the students so there is no confusion as to what the objectives of the course are or what they are expected to complete.
Preparation for each class is very important. having a syllabus and lesson plan is a must to keep organized and on task.
Teaching is so much more than just showing up for class. There is a lot that needs to be done before a successful class is taught: syllabus, objectives, lesson plan, etc.
I learned the importance of setting goals for yourself while teaching and that they're different ways of getting from one point to another.
The key is to get to your destination the quickest, safest, and most direct way. That is what a goal is like. When writing course goals use the road map example to make them clear and direct.
Also why a syllabus is so important to students as an operating manual for the course and answers many of their questions. It helps them understand expectations and outcomes in a clear way and also by creating a checklist it helps throughout the teaching course to avoid forgetting important and critical items during the day and throughout the course.
Be prepared prior to class and arrive early. It helps settle the nerves and makes you look professional and prepared.
As an instructor you should always have lesson plans ready to go to include supplies and lab set up.
