A few key takeaways from this module that I found interesting and easily applicable were how to get students to listen to each other, how to ask effective questions and the importance of developing well-worded questions that students need to know. 
When struggling with students who don't seem to listen to their peers when answering questions, as an instructor, you can ask other students to "paraphrase or respond to their classmates." by doing this, you are more likely to keep the student's attention and engagement. 
To ensure instructors are asking "good questions," we should develop the questions for lectures ahead of time, and they should be planned and directed to individual students, followed by silence; answers should be repeated and reinforced, additional questions should follow, and questions should be above the recall level.
I already participate in these practices but plan to reevaluate my process.
