The point that resonated most with me was remembing the attention span of people and considering adjusting your teaching to that. I think when I deliver content I will try and teach to a point for about 15 minutes. 

I learned the importance of setting the tone the first day of class and how that can improve both how students feel about the course and their confidence in navigating it. I hope to be able to do this on my first day. 

Learning how to create an objective really stood out to me. Being more specific allows for students to truly understand what they need to accomplish and how they will be assessed in regards to it. 

Teaching is so much more than standing in front of a class and presenting information. It is a style that includes how you present the information, how you present yourself, and how you adjust to make the information understandable. LEARNING is the most important part of the process, not teaching. Thus focus on making sure your students are actually learning and adjust your teaching as needed to accomplish that.
