This course is one of the course's most instructors should take. Knowing how to motivate adult students, have them participate in classroom discussions. As an instructor, we can give the sense of security that most students require. This could also help them in becoming more motivated and they could become better students.
Putting this method to use. I find that the students get more involved. They seem to feel engaged in what they are learning. You need to interact with each student. This really helps them understand.

Creating the Syllabus is something each instructor should do. By creating the syllabus, it give you the ability to understand what is in it, how to instruct by it, etc... The students appreciate how much we understand it.
