Reflection 6

Some notes that I took while listening to the teachers of the STL's:

• Use Proximity: this helps the visual and auditory learners see and hear you. plus it's more engaging.
• Give Reasons: People want to know why they should know what you're trying to teach them.
• Lay out exactly what the students are going to learn so that they know how to connect the information you're giving them.
• Board writing skills. Do you have what it takes?
• Building blocks of learning. Make sure you're not just bombing them with information. build upon each little part to reach the final goal.
• WHY????? Tell them why they should know it. Exaggerate if necessary.
• Make it a game. Be ENGAGING.
• Formitively evaluate. Don't ask, "any questions?" at the end. Find out if they're following you the whole time you're trying to teach them.
