An instructor who can blend course content with professional experience and keep students engaged in the learning process is called an Instructional Delivery Expert (IDE). An IDE is someone who not only understands the subject matter but can also effectively teach and connect with students using different instructional methods.
On this module, I have learned strategies that I will apply during the first week of school. For instance, I will review the course expectations with each and ensure that all students learn the class routines. Also, I will emphasize the importance of writing assignment due dates on the board and on the course syllabus.
This module is about getting the students engaged and interested in the class and their fellow students. It is important to address WIIFM - or what's in it for me; students learn better if they feel the material is important to their desired career and goals. Explain why the curriculum is important and how they will use it in the workplace. To help the student get engaged with the class, you can have physical activities that get the students to work together. It is also important to have a detailed, clear written, and eye-catching syllabus. The syllabus should address assignments, due dates, how they will be graded, late or missing assignments, and how to do well in the class.
Setting clear expectations and posting deadline dates everywhere so this should not be an acceptable excuse for late assignments.

Setting clear goals & expectations are important. I have tried the airplane experiment before and it was very helpful.
Es mi primera vez enseñando y siento que este curso es sumamente valioso, ya que nos brinda técnicas para poder guiar una clase perfectamente, manteniendo el enfoque todo el tiempo
Creating buy-in is important; students need to know that the information they are learning can be applied to their chosen career path, and the skills taught are helping them to achieve their career goals.
I also appreciated the suggestions to set apart important topics in your syllabus and to clearly define expectations.
I learned to keep my students engaged and to always have a syllabus my students can follow for everything on the course to be confident about what m teaching at all times. I learned that I wanna be a IDE I wanna have the expertise to carry my students to success.
Setting clear goals and expectations is very important to a course.

to have clear communication with students and organize and plan well to ensure the learning of your students
