Sorry, Textbooks are by nature, boring and tedious. If an instructor wants to keep the students attention, then they must relate the subject to the real world. The world that the students live in, not the world that an instructor has read about in a book.

Expectations

Make them clear, but be flexible and take into account the abilities of the student, not the knowledge of the instructor.

content

In planning course content, an instructor must also expect that not all students progress at the samne rate. Flexibility in course speed and presentations must be acceptable.

Style

Moving your instructions outside of the classroom and out of the text book shows that an instructor is familiar with his/her course content. Simply following a syllabus and reciting the book can be performed by anyone.

Time

Time management is an individual task. Attempting to put it into simple and regimented terms is a stressor on an employee. Many new employees are more concerned with following a format than they are in getting a job accomplished.
