To captivate and motivate, one needs to be prepared and willing to connect and to exude excitment about their field.
As an instructor, be humble, knowledgeable, organized, approachable, confident, professional, and willing to motivate.
I learned how important it is to model, manage and motivate your students and to be aware of having a personal professional development plan.
The success or failure of students is directly related to the type of modeling an instructor uses.

I truly believe I lead by example!

How I am able to take this model and apply the knowledge to seek advice from my peer.
I took away that I will need to be a model of what the students see in the industry. Leading the classroom and being a good listener and communicator will help me be successful.
What I have learned from this module includes the importance of setting achievable but challenging expectations, adhering to campus policies, and following through consistently with disciplinary action or praise. I have also learned that I need to model the type of professionalism and behavior that I want to see in my students. I also want to be approachable and be familar with the resources that are available to my students who need special accomodations or more assistance.
Instructors are life long learners and one needs a development plan to better serve themselves and the students.
I learned that I will need to develop the two attributes that will define my teaching style: my professional presentation and delivery of my subject.

Stay humble, lead by example and maintain a professioanl appearance and attititude. First impression is a lasting one so remember that upon entering and engaging with students.
Great information on being able to adapt and reach your students on many levels based on their needs.
Well from what Ive read thus far, I need to identify areas I want to improve and monitor my progress working towards those areas as well as my professional development in general.
as aleader and mentor it is important to understand your students and to get to know them
