If planning on a demonstration to achieve lesson goals, prior practice and reflection is extremely essential.

There are many different methods of learning and we do need to trial and error those methods.  If one does not work for your current set of students, take note, regroup, and try another method.

Visual learning and hands on learning always was my choice of learning method but my student showed me everyone learns different this topic taught me all the different methods and how important demos are.

Look at the overall big picture. You have a syllabus, and developed a lesson plan, but students are unpredictable at times, and it is very important to adapt as you move along the curriculum. Keep them engaged as to not get the dazed and confused look after 10 minutes of lecture.  Move around. Use a variety of methods to deliver your information.

I learned that varying the delivery methods not only throughout the course, but also throughout the class session keeps the students engaged and retention of the information is much higher. I plan to continue to educate myself on delivery methods that will keep my knowledge relevant and keep my students engaged.

I've learned to vary instructional styles to help students with different learning styles and to better keep all students engaged.

Remember to vary your instructional methods to try to accommodate all learning styles.

Using demonstrations in addition to lectures offers the information to students who have varying learning styles.

I learned that developing course content is about more than just putting information together. It's important to organize material in a way that connects to learning objectives and makes sense for students. I plan to apply this by being intentional about structure, using a variety of resources to keep lessons engaging, and making sure each piece of content supports the overall goals of the course.

Ways to improve my lesson plans

Lesson planning,preparation also varying the instructor style.

learning styles, ways to improve lesson planning

I have learned to be organized with lesson plans and lecture outlines. The more prepared I am, the better I will do. Also I have learned that the varying the instruction type is a great way to help with all students learning the material. The mini lecture info was also good. Using mini lectures of 15-18 minutes is a good idea so the students stay engaged. 

I learned that lectures are boring and try to make them short 10 to 15 minutes mini lectures and while doing demonstrations keep the steps between 5 to 7 after that comprehension drops significantly.

I learned that varying delivery methods helps reach different learning styles and keeps students engaged. I plan to combine short lectures with demonstrations and hands-on projects in my fashion and design classes to make learning more practical and relevant.

I learned it is important to utilize different learning styles. 

Making modifications depending on students to keep engagement and interest is important.

its important to incorporate all different learning styles into the lectures as students all learn in different ways.
