Breaking down skills demonstration in 5-7 steps to keep students focused and engaged.

 

Effective teaching strategies address different learning styles. Demonstration of skill or procedure requires preparation and practice beforehand. 

 

Get to know your students and their learning styles, provide techniques for all learning styles 

 

Multiple teaching styles need to be implemented during the day to be able to reach the students. 

 

Know your content, practice the demonstration before showing, don't drone on lecture in class.

 

take the time to prepare beforehand. 

 

Knowing the information beforehand and prepping before class will help the lecture flow more smoothly and once you get comfortable, it makes it easier to start to integrate other learning styles into your presentation/lecture. 

Attn span is 15-18 min on average, split up lecture

My teaching style hopefully will flow naturally through preparation and cues. It is important to be aware of the average retnation and attention span.

 

It is important to remember that each adult learner has one style of learning:

Written: the learner gains information by reading

Visual: the learner gains information by seeing the procedure or the concept being executed

audio: the learning gains information by listening to the content being delivered

Tactile: the learning is delivered using a hands on approach. 

Because of this, it is important ot be sure to utilize a variety of educational techniques in order to get through to each type of learner in the classroom setting.

It is also important to take notes at the end of the class to do self-reflection on those areas that could have been delivered better, and those areas that may need to be reinforced or readdressed. 

 

Being prepared and practicing what you plan for will allow for greater outcomes for both the intructor and the student. This gives them a guide of what to follow and what expectations are, especially the more prepared you are. 

Variety is the spice of life! Vary your lesson delivery.

Always be creative.

 

Teachin in  different methods is very helpful for students who are wanting  to learn more. Prepare and  practicing demonstration a head of class is something I need tp apply. 

 

You need to develop your course with all the learning types in mind to have better delivery and understanding.

I learned a lot from this one. I absolutley need to work on thetime management part of putting a plan in place for teaching.

 

Apply the different learning types to help your students learn. Not every student learns the same. Be effective in lecture. Use other delivery options to keep students intrested and engaged.

Humans have a 15 minute attention spand at any given time. 40% of what we hear is rememebered. the only solution that i can see is proper note taking. 

Everyone learns differently and you need to use your knowledge of teaching to reach every mind in that classroom. Practice makes perfect, keep their attention, teach and listen. 

 

Keep things short and sweet, engaging and entertaining.
