Different delivery options help with students learning by keeping the students interested and engaged in learning. Students like variety to help keep them focused.

It's important to make a good first impression with a new class.  A great way to make a good first impression is to take the time and make an effort to learn people's names and to pronounce them correctly.

Remembering students' names and pronouncing them correctly is very important.  Something as simple as showing up a little early to allow yourself time to make introductions and ensure you're saying names correctly can make a huge impact.

These are all things I've used in the the classroom for a long time.  I think the biggest takeaway for me was, "never assume you're the smartest person in the room just because you're the instructor".  I've been taught things by students many times, and if anything, I think it helps boost their confidence when they get to teach you something.

It is important to use a myriad of questions to assess student's knowledge retention and to be sure choose the most appropriate quiz and exam questions to measure higher level mastery. 

Students need to know what is expected of them as well as how their work will be graded. The expectations should be made clear to the students perhaps through samples of acceptable work.

I believe that the flipped classroom model is very unique, practical and efficient way of active learning. A model that keeps student engaged in the learning process. We may have all experienced being in a lecture 30 minutes long and depending on the speaker's ability to keep the audience attention, either drift off or start to readjust ones' seat posture. The flipped classroom model, avoids this and learning is active and continuous, leaving no room for boredom. 

The components of a flipped classroom involves educated instructors who encompasses the flipped classroom model in contrast to the traditional F2F classroom as it relates to the unique format of a flexible, blended learning environment. This is done through teaching content using technological media online then hands-on in the classroom. The restructure learning environment focuses on student-centered and active learning. As this type of learning model requires much planning and knowing this important aspect will help to be prepared. 

I gained a better understanding of strategies for test question writing and also when to use what type of questions in assessment planning. 

Assessments are different depending on the type of learning, and the available resources. Assessing experiential learning is different than individual learning.
