it is important to make course outline and have structure in place, making sure the class enviornment is conducive to learning.
This was a great review of what to do for prepratation. Components of instrucition offering and goal setting were good to review. The instructional objectives with 4 components was helpful. Also, to think about what the students want to know about and of me - good idea.
Spend a few mintues before class, to make sure you can deliever 100%. Not to waste time thinking or looking for a marker.
Setting the tone, proper documentation, and being prepared. Leading by example.
I have earned is it essential to maintain a checklist while covering material during lesson to ensure nothing is missed
It is important to be prepared as much as possible. This shows students you are invested in your role and their success
I have study lean concepts for process improvement and love the correlation with lean and Instructional Offerings. Providing the why to the student is a great start, a visual of the roadmap with the syllabus will help students understand where they are going and how to get there. I also appreciate the checklist or standard work for the instructor. It's not easy to remeber everything plus once you try out your checklist there will be things to add or remove.
Prepare my students and hold them accountable. Keep a notepad handy.
Planning and preparation will provide a safe and consistent learning environment for your students. Students learn best when they know what to expect from the instructor. An unorganized environment can create a lot of confusion and demotivation for students.
It is important to be as prepared as possible before each class, be transparent so your students always know what to expect about their education, and keeping a notepad with reminders on the needs of individual students as well as the class as a whole.
Having a clear plan and expectation let's the students learn and understand clearly what the course is about.
be aware of my class as a student
Be well prepared with clear course obejectives and add personal resource packets to help keep lessons relevant to the times and technology.
Being prepared before the class waks in reduces nervousness and distraction. Keeping a check list handy is helpful
The 5 P's. I've heard this reference since I was a young. Guess what? It is still relevant today and will probably be true a hundred years from now.
Preparing for a course does not stop - it continues with preparing for each CLASS. How many times have you been a student and had an instructor walk in and think that he/she just "knows everything" and then they stumble and come across as completetly unprepared for the class and material that day?
The core concepts are the trunk and additional information is the branches. Use a checklist to ensure that you do not forget information and that all of the plans that are set forth in the syllabus are followed.
making a check list will be very helpful when knowing what has been said or what has not been covered
I love the idea of getting to class early. I always try to be in the room before any of my students because that does give us a chance to have casual conversations or for them to ask questions they may not want to say in front of others. Plus, it gives me time to have everything set up for class and to deal with any problems if they arise. I'm trying to also model good preparation skills for my students.
Prepare, prepare, prepare...and have key components listed that you know you want to cover, that are part of your list. I also make notes of things I've agreed to do for the students, as they ask for certain things in class, like changing the "due date and time" from 10pm to 11:59pm (23:59.)
