One size does not fit all. Find multiple interestiing ways to present and reinforce content. This way you address a variety of learning styles.
Having known the aptitudes and base knowledge of my students, I select the best teaching strategy , and I deliver the learning material in the simplest, direct way, at the same time, being creative enough to keep the students interested and focus in their learning of the given material
Know my course. Everyone learmns differently and I will tweek my teaching style for each individual as needed.
Use varied technics to keep students attention. Mini lectures work well because we can only take in about 18 minutes of onfo.
Keep lectures 15-18 mins at a time. Use a variety of teaching styles. Don't read lectures. Have a opening that grabs the students attention.
Create lesson plans with multiple learning/teaching styles in short increments will help build success for you and your students.
Varying your delivery to address as many learning styles as possible is absolutely vital. When you vary your instructional delivery to address as many learning styles as you can, it maximizes the opportunity for different students to comprehend and apply what you are teaching. Good stuff!
It si important to stick to lesson plans, vary your teachings styles, and present materials that allow student to get involved during class time.
I need to remember that the average attention span of the adult learning is less than 18 mins. By keeping lecture segments to 10-15 mins with discussions, demos, and learning activities, this will help to keep engagement and motivation up. Each individual learner also has a specific learning style and the instructor must vary the teaching approach to accomodate all learners.
Lecturing for an extended period of time is ineffective for many reasons, the least of not being that the adult attention span is only 15-18 minutes. Additionally, lecture delivery rarely takes into account the needs of differentiated learners. Even auditory learners need a break from a lecture, so by providing instructional variety, a professor can help to ensure students remain focused and engaged with the curriculum.
Having a good delivery option is easier when teaching a class.
I learned the differences between Headline, Summary and Objective.
Videotaping lectures is something I had not tried before. I can see how valuable this could be in the improvement of my teaching skills.

Understanding the need to adjiust teaching styles to meet all the needs of the students
Hello Peers
I learned each student has a different learning styles as such, teaching styles should vary. I like to use movies or videos or powerpoints or group work, that way I am catering to the different learning styles.
This course offered several new insights that i did not have before starting. Even though I have tought in the classroom before it is always good to learn new ways to reach students.
as an instructor I must work hard to select the most viable method of delivering information to students. different stlyes keep students interested and focused
teaching styles need to vary in order to be effective for the entire classes success. adult learning has its own challenges based off standard atention span studies. know the material and present it with a a personal rather than mechanical/repetative approach.
