I know that my institution standardizes many of the components discussed in this section, so it is even more important that I master the elements I can such as knowing my content and textbook well, preparing for class and arriving for class early, making a checklist (which I love checklists anyway, so this is no hardship for me) so I don't forget important topics or steps, and keeping a notepad handy for new issues/concerns, etc that come up during class.
