I learned that taking short breaks and pausing for a few seconds is helpful for student since the average attention span for an adult is roughly 12-14 minutes.  Using statements such as " Today I will be teaching you about 5 methods for communication" are great ways to engage your students to listen while presenting new information. Lastly, repeatedly reinforcing the same information in different ways and allowing for a time of application increases the probability of students actually remembering new information.
