I learned that true/false questions are easier to answer than essay questions because their looking for more through answers.

Taking time to set up the right questions can help the students answer the questions better so its worth that time for your students benefit..

It is very important to incorparate technology into your lessons because thats what the younger students will be expecting because thats what they grew up with.

I'm surprised to learn that teachers provide a syllabus as part of their class instruction and is a living contract between student/instructor during the time the block is active. What an informative way to improve my teaching abilities and arming me with the tools needed to aid students on a path to success.

I like the idea about leaving a tease for your student to check back in the next class period.

Comment on Richard Razzone's post: I couldn't have summarize this in one concise statement as you have here summarized. Nice work Richard.

In summary I can just say from reading this lesson that humans have a very limited attention span of 10-15 minutes and can retain only up to 5-7 instructional steps. So, with these ranges working in my favor the odds are greater at missing more of the material that is planned for my presentations. Therefore, learning must be in fact highest quality material selected and presented in such a conversational way that prevents over saturating my students with a barrage of facts that will simply not stick. 

Addressing my students directly by name once they come into class and starting… >>>

Never thought that the wait times were as important as they really are.

I like open questions more than closed because it makes you think more than just using your memory.

My understanding is to use the testing format that best fits you subject matter.
