I have learned to be clear when it comes to different learning styles. I want to make sure that each student understands what they are learning, and I want to supply an environment where each student feels comfortable and confident that they will get their work done. Communication is key to an amazing classroom and learning style.
Provide the class with clear expectations, but realizing that as an instructor I need to show them how the course will provide value to them and their career path.
It is important to help students see the value of what they are learning. I like to use bell ringer and question of the day methods to connect the students.
I've learned how to set up a syllabus with maximum success in helping the student understand the expectations or the class. Also the paper airplane activity is a great idea to start the team building process and to beak the ice on the first day.
When we set clear standards there is no room for confusion. It is important to not only set clear expectations but to start building connections to the students and students to students. this helps in setting the practicality of your material when you know the people you are instructing.

importance of engaging students in class with their agenda included. documentation of late/ missed assignments and policy enforcement.
As a New Instructor I find this topic very interesting and relevent to my current classes. It seems today's students seem to have many excuses why they have not turned in their assignments.

I learned about establishing clear and précised expectations. In my world, following expectations = job security
Clear communication is key. Establish expectations early-not just about rules, but about respect, responsibility, and effort. Let students know what they expect from you as their teacher, and what you hope to see from them as learners. Take time to explain your routines, model classroom procedures, and practice them together.
I learned to set clear expectations and enforces rules. Helping them understand that there will be policies in place in the future in their career endeavors therefore they should treat their classroom the same in preparing for that.

Set clear expectations for the class from day one. Be concise and stick to what you say.

To help students understand the requirements of the class, the instructor should have clear instructions on topics to be covered and due dates for all assignments. This will help to lower the students pre-course anxiety.
Just setting the class expectations and rules. Have boundaries around their grades.
