The responsibility to insure we create a safe environment where students feel they can share their experiences. 

The necessary steps to take to report sexual assault incidents if I am notified by one of my students.

Encouragement was one thing that kept me in my program when I wanted to quit. These instructors kept encouraging me not to leave, gave me study tips, and made sure I got my work done. So my experience of encouragement has been both emotionally and physically beneficial for me.

The "crisis game" is something I want to put into practice with my students. I know that in my area of teaching, it will bring about real-life situations in which students can practice what they have been learning.

The use of humor can help in the creation of an environment that helps students to feel comfortable but also can help them in their interaction with their fellow students and me as a teacher. 

The different type of learning expectations depends on the type of student. In my job, I will have more non-traditional students however if I do have one or two that fit the more traditional setting, I will need to make sure they do not get lost in the crowd. 

The need in my lecture time with students is that short blocks are most appropriate. To format the lecture that is engaging for all and helps with all major learning styles.

1st day prep. Something that I can list out ahead of time so I can be calm and prepared for my students

Having a checklist would help me to remember the specific needs of each student. I'm not a notepad person and I would probably lose it. However, I can make notes on my cellphone that I can update regularly and be able to keep track of in a better way.
