With prepared lesson plans, it's good to remain flexible in what you are teaching and adjust as needed based on student/class overall feedback. This can be done through informal assessment such as asking follow-up questions. Moreover, when starting a new lesson, it's good to try different openings to motivate students on a new topic.  

Incorporating student introductions to get a feel of who my students are and why they are taking my class. In addition, arriving early, setting up, and being prepared would be useful on the first day to set the tone. 

After reading this module, some of the things I learned were differences between Objectives and Goals. The guidelines in syllabus creation were also helpful as I reflected on how I can further enhance it in upcoming classes. 

From the readings, modeling professional behavior as well as observing other experienced teachers will help me be a better instructor. Reflecting on past learning experiences has guided me to create my own teaching style and presentation.
