  • Clearly spell out expectations before the course begins (e.g., grading material to be covered, due dates etc.).
  • Use visual aids whenever possible.
  • Face the class.
  • Present new or technical vocabulary on the blackboard or use a student handout.
  • Give assignments both orally and in written form to avoid confusion.
