The more you pre-plan for your class the more you and the students will be prepsred for class.
Try to keep a notepad to write things you need to remember. Also, try to get to the classroom early and prepare.
Meet and greet each student as they enter the classroom.
Preparing is most important.
we have learned how important it is to keep a notepad because we tend to forget at times. A notepad and a checklist is good to keep us ontrack and organized. I myself love to check things off because it gives me a feeling that I have accomplished something.
Making a checklist of items I want to remeber to discuss or cover in class is helpful
As well as knowing the material, it is important to be a real person that shows empathy, excitement and engagement. Remove the fear. Foster the environment for learning.
I am appreciative for the review and indepth description of all the areas of preparation and planning. I am appreciative of having a review point for all of this. I wish there was a way for me to down load this vital info as a packet versus having to download each page. I too am a fan of the Syllabus and the guidlines that are set by reviewing it. I also love to have a note book or a white board handy at all time to write down things that come to me during class. It is very easy to address things as the come up with individuals but it is also great to address learning opportunities to the whole class at the end as a review. This way info is spread among all of the students instead of just that one person
It is very important to keep a notepad or sticky notes on the computer. It ensures I am able to follow up with students needs. Also planning and creating a checklist provides a smoother class experience.
Good lesson plans are a must
Proper preparation helps to keep the learning process flowing smoothly.
Its is important to be prepared before your class arrives. Clear objectives are crucial.
Effective teaching requires you to be early, prepared, and plan out your time
Be prepared and make a list on what to discuss.
Provide detailed informationt to students: what will be covered, purpose of the course, assignments, tests, grading system, textbooks, resource materials, attendance, late work and makeup.
Early preparation enables educators to have a sense of easy transfer of knowledge to learners. Implementing steps, specifically following the syllabus to engage learning development and developing a checklist to stay on task, can alleviate tension from both the educator and students, thus making the learning experience pleasant and less daunting.
Keeping a check list as an instructor helps you know which items have been completed and those that needs to be talked about
Plan well and implement it. Add current teaching to the syllabus whenever possible.
I learned that it's okay to make mistakes. But it's good to plan ahead.
Make objectives and expatications clear
I had never thought of using a checklist to make sure I covered certain topics. Definately a strategy I will try.
