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. 

Wait time in the practice of questioning is so important. When I was a younger teacher I felt uncomfortable with wait time but now I see the value of letting the students pause and think about it! 

Instructors need to use a variety of learning styles to be effective and reach their students in the most effective possible way. This will require the teacher to teach in a way they might not learn, but that is okay.

This deeper understanding of the course content in a flipped classroom is far from the traditional, but as with any classroom, there may be pitfalls that are being researched to improve this strategic way of learning. 

The term "flipped classroom" Is exactly that, it is an opposite of a traditional in-person classroom. It is a kind of learning experience that focuses on student involvement, as opposed to an instructor-centered teaching. The learning content is delivered via technology as pre-recorded voice or video lectures that students can replay as needed to capture the content fully before attending class to apply the learned content in-person. This concept of flipped classroom allows instructors to be a guide and to facilitate the in-person classroom with hands-on activities. The student also has a chance to teach other peers, which allows for… >>>

Learning each student’s name and addressing them by their name shows I’m interested in their learning.

Continuously study develop knowledge and improve the class flow using experience and technology to create interactive environment in the class.

Early preparation on my part decreases stress of first time meeting students.

Most of the students will stay in class as long as they feel the activities are valuable. Some teachers engage students in graded activities near the end of the class meeting to reward students who are still engaged.
