Be willing to learn, adapt and change.
instructor roles: Model, manage, and motivate
Present a Personal and Professional deamonor at all times to re-enforce reputation and credibility, and ensure the forum comprehends why the material studied is important to them. This will be pivotal in maintaining order and sustaining good classroom/forum ethics.
You may not be the smartest one in the room but your ability to motivate and teach students what your passionate about will encourage them to learn.
Ones example as a class leader, instructor, mentor, is the most powerful tool that one can perfect.
This was refreshing! In the true sense. I know as instructors we tend to be reluctant to go through what we think we already know. The importance is we refresh ourselves and remember to be the best we can. I got: care share, be fair. and do not be afraid to dare! By caring we maintain humility and student engagement; by sharing we are accessing knowledge for students; by being fair, we are modeling good leadership; to dare, is to be the instructor that can do it all and bring current and future knowledge into play no matter our personal beliefs.

The 5 "C's"- be Credible, Candid, Compassionate, Committed and Clear!
I've gained a better understanding of my roles as an instructor as well as some strategies to expand and improve upon my own personal competence.
Other takeaways; Love what I know, and remember, the most important thing happening in the classroom is not merely teaching, but LEARNING.
Be professional and lead by example
this has been a good reminder, in my carrier a lot of us fall into the habit of being lees concerned with some aspects of modeling and this was a good reminder to focus back in the basics.
As an instructor, leader in my classroom, development is a continuous process.
Credible, Candid, Compassionate, Committed and Clear is a very good place to start that I saw posted from another teacher. I would like to add humble and let your language be intelligent and appropriate not sorted and ambiguous, and I like the part about the possession of "soft skills" never heard it put that way.
I liked the three roles: Model, Manager, and Motivator, and the 5 Cs: Credible, Candid, Compassionate, Committed, and Clear. I would add Confident.

"Student Learning is priority in class Not Teaching"
I totally Agree, that professionalism and behavior towards the student is extremely important and should be practiced on a daily basis. I think also as a educator we need to work on getting things more digital especially in my field of aviation.
Reply to Michelle DeJong's post:
I think a common mistake many instructors do is to try to prove how smart we are; like the presentation stated, there will be more intelligent people in our classrooms, however, we are the subject matter experts.
