Grading

My own rule is to grade papers immediately because students always want to know how they did on their work.

Instructional back up plans

Instructional back up plans would be beneficial when a change is needed to present material or you have covered the material quicker than usual and you have extra time to do other activities.

demonstration teaching

Demonstration teaching is dominant in my class as students love the hands on learning style. They also are more interactive with one another which engages the entire class.

powerpoint

I do utilize powerpoint presentations as another medium to eliminate tedium. Utilizing such a medium engages visual and auditory learning styles as the graphics engage the sight and my highlighting the impotant points engages the auditory senses.

Guest Speakers

I utilize guest speakers as a resource to reinforce and reiterate the importance of the course. I choose dynamic and effective guest speakers who understand the points I would like covered. I always discuss what the demographics of the class is and how their career is relevant to what I am trying to stress.

Flipped Classroom

I would like to try the flipped classroom for my upcoming class next term. I try to incorporate more student interaction during class to make the class more engaging. I love the idea of incorporating more technology into the classroom. I believe the introduction of online resources will only add to the educational experience in the classroom. I plan on researching more on the flipped classroom so it will be a successful transition from traditional to the flipped classroom.
