I've learned that knowing each student by name is important.  Making a student feel that you can identify who they are and why they are in your class is important.  Also, creating new groups in the class is also beneficial to everyone as it creates a sense of community.  It also discourages cohorts that take up all the attention and create an imbalance of learning.
