make sure you are always observing your class, getting feedback and making real time corrections to your class.
Sandy,
I agree. Students like stories, and including situations or past good (or bad) experiences often convey an important point to be made in a way thats memorable and interesting.

I think any time you can relate what thier learning to real life application is extremely beneficial to class participation and keeping everyone on track with the lesson.
Hi Laura:
Our experience can be helpful here too. Sharing examples of past situations will always be relevant and keep attention.

The classroom is so unpredictable and it's great to have back-ups. Even when I think class will go as planned, it always surprises me!
Hi Richard:
Yes, observe and adjust. That's actually a scientific process, and it works in most cases. I say most because when you're dealing with humans, there are variables that can't be counted on to be consistent.
