Make sure you stick to your syllabus if you expect the students to do the same.

The importance of remembering students names and how to pronounce them properly.

Engaging with students as they enter the classroom.

Being prepared always pays off

Being prepared, showing up early, feeling out the class, engaging with students all help with the lesson. 

In this lesson I've learned the importance of creating Lesson plans, objectives, and clear goals to provide a carefully developed syllabus, and why this is important for the students. I haven't thought of the syllabus as being a legal document between students and instructor, but it's a good way to think about it. I also learned about reflecting upon myself, and trying to understand how the students will think of me.

Preparing and planning helps create direction for success for the course. Setting goals will also help create a vision for the students. 

ABCD of instruction

Make sure to have a well thought out syllabus. This way all of the rules on late homework, exams, and attendance is very clear and there isn't any confusion. It will also spell out the clear start times for the class, and that is when attendance is taken.

I keep a notebook with a checklist and post it notes for small tasks . These keep me focused on what needs to be done before class finishes and reminds to tell them of what to expect in the next class .

Being prepared before a teacher start a class is very important

I always arrive 30 minutes early for class in order to adequately prepare for the lesson and activities of the day. Along with being able to possibly trouble shoot any unforeseen problems.

Preparation and knowing your material are very good points.

Prepare a "SWABT" on the board for the students to see the agenda for the day. ("STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO") do what ever they will be learning in that day.  The instructor has to be prepared to keep the focus of the student.

Checklist!

It's so important that students understand the policies laid out within the course syllabus. Different instructors use different methods, techniques...so you can't assume every course will be handled the same way.

clearn expectations of the class: =objectives for each module that is delivereed and explained during the first meeting

clear expectations, including course requirements and grading rubric

Preparation is key to the success of the instructional day.

It is vital to be prepared to keep structure not only for your students but also for yourself. By being prepared and structured you are also setting that example for your students. 

The videos are motivational and show how much preparation is put into lecture. 

I intend to come early and make sure I assess the class and their needs on the day of lecture.
