Being aware of and practicing different options for content practice and delivery will make said content accessible to more students. 

It is important to use different teaching methods to cover the different learning styles student may have.  It will assist in keeping students motivated in the class.

In a first class it is important to let the students know a bit about your professional background as well as have them introduce themselves and tell something about themselves as an ice breaker. 

To be a successful instructor it is important to prepare using a syllabus and course content to outline the class.  Creating checklists is also a great way to ensure all items are covered.

As an instructor it is important to show up on time and present myself in a clean and professional manner to set the tone of professionalism for my students.

Varying course content and how it is delivered is going to be so important for student success. 

Introduction is extremely important for the instructor and students so everyone can start to learn who each other are and what is expected during class. When an instructor is involved with getting to know their students, it makes the students feel valued and wanted. 

Planning and prepping for your classes is the best way for everyone to be successful! It takes the guess work out of your day when you are already confident in what the lesson plan is for the day. 

One of the main things I learned from this module is how important it is to design assessments that truly measure student learning. Effective tests should be fair, aligned with learning objectives, and allow students to demonstrate both knowledge and skills.

Moving forward, I plan to be more intentional in how I create assessments by aligning… >>>

One of the main things I learned from this module is that assessment is an ongoing process, not just a final grade. Formative assessments help guide instruction, while summative assessments measure what students have learned.

I also learned the importance of aligning assessments with clear objectives and using a variety of methods beyond tests, such as projects and group work, to better measure real world skills.

Moving forward, I plan to use more diverse assessments and focus on tracking student progress while building skills like communication and problem solving.
