This makes me realize that the amount of prep especially to construct good essay style and multiple choice and matching questions is a lot, more than the prep time allows for instructors currently. I definitely need to be intentional with creating the tests. I now want to go back through all of our current tests we use and edit them for reliability and validity, as they were all created by people in the past with no formal education/teaching knowledge.

The Socratic method of teaching seems interesting. In CTE it could be used to make sure kids understand what gear they will need for a specific type of shoot, how they will set it up, and why they will set it up that way.

I found the kinesthetic learner interesting. Also, I may try incorporating a way to learn my students' learning styles next semester.

I like the idea of incorporating CATs in most of my classes. I like that they are ungraded so students may be more willing to answer honestly and candidly than they would if they were getting marked.

Having a portfolio of questions to ask was a good strategy that I want to try and use in all of my classes. And making questions concise is a big one. I have definitely asked a question, gotten confused looks from students, and realized I had to reword the question to make it less "wordy" and more clear.

keep students engaged by using 10-15 minute lectures. use the addition of guest speakers, videos, and other supplemental materials.

I learned professionalism includes punctuality, hygiene and having instructional content ready is essential to become a role model for students. Instructors are to be role models, managers and motivators in their classroom. 

Questioning is great for teaching. Many students can have the possibility of being vague and non detailed and it can allows me as an instructor to understand the psychological aspect of my students. 

On the first day of class we should set clear expectations for the class, aswell as learning the students names.

Give the students a brief overlook on your past experience so they can get to know your background, and have a sense of confidence in their instructor.

I liked learning of the specific strategies for each learning style, especially kinesthetic, because I've always been stumped on how to help kinesthetic learners in my class. I've learned that our learning styles quiz we do at the beginning of every cohort is actually a good thing and to keep it up! I like that instructors are encouraged to get students to learn through other styles as well, because realistically, on the job, the student will have no choice but to learn through different styles. It's best to get used to it in a classroom setting first.
