Wow. Never considered pre-tests. Much better idea than making an assumption on where to start.
As an instructor, it benefits both students and teacher to know something about your students prior experiences,goals,and learning styles. Build your training lessons to the needs of your group.Develop ongoing feedback with students,be available to address any questions and concerns. Give quizes and provide constructive comments were needed.
Good planning is the key to successful teaching.
I have learned that time preparation is key to good presentation.
In preparing your lesson plans, it is important to take into consideration the knowledge level of the students, understanding why they are taking the course and being able to utilize various methodologies in teaching. It is will also help you as an instructor to learn a little bit about your studenets so that you can tailor your teaching style where you can maximize learning.
Students often don't realize the resources they have at their disposal to augment what is presented.
Stepping into a program of study it is very important to do pretests. Vocabulary, general familiarity, and previous dok quizes are invaluable for planning.
Similar to the military, it is important for an instructor to know the pre-requisite materials covered. This is similar to knowing the job of your subordinates. Pre-test are also a great way to gauge the students' knowledge of the subject so the instructor can adjust the class to challenge the students but not overwhelm them.
I like the Pause for Thinking sections. They actually do make me think.
There is a principle that diagnosos precede prescription. Altough it may be generally conected to medicine, it is not different in teaching a class. The teacher needs to diagnose the students level of knowlegde, familiarity with the topic, etc. as a means to informing class design and delivery.
Plan for time compression.
good insight and structure
How do you learn what your students know to prep for a course. You can relate.to the content. Another good idea is to create
a pretest for your class it will show some knowledge of writing skills and understand their basics as well.
Effective lesson planning is the foundation of effective teaching. Planning a lesson in a vacuum, without understanding the audience will result in time wasted (either going over information the class as a whole already understands or from time being needed to answer inordinate amount of questions as a result of gaps in knowledge from the onset). Starting with an understanding of the students, this allows for content and tempo planning.
Know what you are teaching and know your audience. To be successful, you will need to be organized and focused. Don't waste your students time, it's their education.
Always be prepaired. You have to think ahead when it comes to being in front of students and being the example.
