The more prepared an instructor is, the better they can guide the class through any situation that arises.

The concept of a pretest, in my opinion, will assist students in preparing for the actual course exams.

Creating a clear and concise class plan enhances students' learning experiences.

Through this module, I gained valuable insights on how to prepare effectively before facing my class and how to enhance my skills as an instructor.

I have a better idea of using essay/short answer questions now. Previously, I've had specific things from the unit I wanted students to know, so I would give them a short answer question and the answer to study by. Now, I see how I can use essay questions to explain how to create a camera setup or other step-by-step production procedures.

One of the most important lessons I’ve learned is the value of professionalism. While the industry I teach about tends to have a more casual culture, maintaining professionalism in the classroom is crucial for fostering mutual respect between students and instructors. It helps create a positive and productive learning environment. Additionally, it’s important to establish clear boundaries between encouraging students and forming personal friendships with them.

Establishing rotating roles for group activities is an excellent idea. This approach allows students to experience the various responsibilities of each role, helping them understand what is expected of them. By gaining firsthand experience, they will be better equipped to support one another, especially when a group member takes on a role for the first time. This collaboration fosters personal growth and creates a more positive work environment, ultimately leading to a successful team.

Incorporating the components of a lesson plan on a daily basis will help the scholars and the facilitator develop a daily agenda using unique abilities and learning strategies to support their development and a successful plan for learning and problem-solving.

Facilitators develop a comforting learning environment and foster learned self-confidence by using nonverbal cues to de-escalate any problems that might occur. Always be aware of the nonverbal messages you may be displaying during lessons and remain in control when students are not following the daily expectations. Avoid personal topics and sharing opinions with the students, as they might get offended.
