It is really important that the students learn during a lecture and not just endure it.

Self Improvement

If my reading of history has taught me anything it is that those who wish to accomplish great things must continually work to improve their skills and their knowledge base. That being said they must also be prepared for a lot of set back and to work with no apparent reward in sight. The reason being is life has opportunities that occur at random intervals and it is how you do on these opportunities that will determine if you move up or if you move down.

Student engagement in lecture.

I have noticed that asking my students lots of questions during the course of a class is a great way to get the students involved in the class. I try to use a variety of questions from really easy to really difficulty. If the students are not able ot answer the really difficulty questions I try to break it down into a series of easier questions. These questions once they work through enable to student to answer the hard question.
