4.3. Instructional Tips/Guidelines
• Use conversational language that is easy to understand and sounds natural to the students.
• Create a comfortable, relaxed environment throughout.
• Be prompt with your responses to student queries. If you are not sure about anything, inform them and get back with your response the next day.
• Circulate around the room as students complete the exercise and reach out to students struggling with the exercise.
• Use technology (slides, demos, and guided lab exercises) in the most appropriate ways depending on the audience profile and their comfort with Ubuntu.
• Use presentation slides to stay on topic and avoid getting lost and cover the main points without forgetting anything. Glance at a specific point and quickly return attention to the students. Avoid reading out the slide word by word.
• To encourage interactivity, use the lab exercises throughout the lesson.
