Get Your Students Hired
I have learned that it is important to be prepared to vary my teaching style. Students want to be engaged and feel that the lecture style remains entertaining as well as educational.
teaching using multiple learning styles will keep the students engaged and excited about applying knowledge rather than being bored and unstimulated
I learned the styles of teaching and how students process the information - I learned to be adaptable in the classroom to make sure you are providing teaching styles for all your students to the learn/retain as much as a they can.
I need to be vey familiar with the material so I can answer random questions about the subjects being covered.
Using various teaching methods allows for students with different learning methods to be successful in the class. Keeping the class entertaining is also essential in their learning. Being prepared and practicing your demonstration before hand can be helpful.
Use different methods (e.g. slides, demonstrations, lectures). Rehearse if you going to do a demo.
Students learn in a variety of ways and it is important to vary my teaching style to have a more effective learning environment.
I learned the importance of developing good lesson plans that are concise. Also, the importance of keeping lectures to 10-15 minutes and use a variety of delivery methods to meet all students needs.

I do not have much experience creating lesson plans, but I need to think carefully about the content, goals and objectives, delivery methods to reach various learning styles, evaluation procedures, materials needed, and make sure I am paying attention to the time.
So have good rapport=retention, lecture in 10-15 min increments, have a variety of learning ongoing styles to meet all needs, problem solve as you go along.
I learned the importance of preparation and using various delivery methods of course content. This keeps students engaged and helps their knowledge retention.
The instructor should do their best to encourage the class to participate. The instructor should build a rapport with their students and gauge their interest in attending class. The instructor should attempt to use multiple learning styles because not all students learn the same way.
Variety of teaching styles will help the instructor get know all the students and how to help them. Not every student learns the same way, so as the instructor it is important to learn the different ways to improve the learning of the students.
It is important to assure all types of leaning styles get addressed when teaching to ensure the attention of everyone. Being a well prepared instructor gives the students confidence in you and will assist in trust that you are a knowledgeable instructor. Be prepared for class, spend some time talking to the students prior to class to get some insite about them.
Being prepared is important. Trying to teach and adapt to the different learning styles to all students is important, to keep them engaged in what material is being taught and make it relatable if possible.
The average attention span of an adult learner is 15-18 minutes. I found this extremely informative. As teachers we need to be aware of Statics like this so when we are teaching through lecture, we make sure we are breaking it up into 15 min intervals. That we make sure that we are being engaging while we are teaching. We need to plan out lectures to make sure we are getting the content across to students in a way that will excite them and keep their attention.
I learned that it is important to try out different teaching techniques because other students may not learn the same as their peers.
I like the idea of mini lectures consisting of 15-18 minutes. This allow students the opportunity to not only learn the content but also retain it.
