We can never overplan for a course. It's important to not only provide what we must, but consider extra items which may help the students understand the course completely.
Creating a checklist for the first day of class will keep me focused and assist me in ensuring I covered critical information
Teaching and educating should by synonymous - however when give out tasks with conditions and standards - are we really educating or teaching?
Being organized in the classroom and staying on track using a checklist.
Being prepared is another way that we should lead by example.
Hold people accountable and make sure you are setting the example.
Planning and preparation is very important for classroom management and instruction. In this way, students feel

The importance of being prepared and reviewing the course objectives. It helps to set the tone in the classroom and a great opportunity to motivate the students in preparation of what to anticipate.
I was very lucky in nursing school that our objectives were incredibly well designed. They were so well done that there was no doubt on how to study. If one completed/answered the objectives and knew the information, it was almost a guarantee that you would ace the course. I've been motivated ever since to provide that kind of clarity to future students.
This module was extremely useful and knowledgeable on how to be effective in teaching a course. More specifically, creating course outlines, a good syllabus, teaching strategies, goals & objectives, and picking the best instructional tools such as the best textbook.
It is important to have a checklist and to validate the links and assignment material.
I plan to go through the preterm checklist and validate all my links and material are working. Reviewing the objectives and making them granular so students will have a very clear understanding on what each weeks topics will focus on.
The ABCD of instruction - A-Audience, B-Behavior, C-condition and D-Degree - those are great parameters to engage students.
