As an instructor, working toward organization and consistency is helpful for lectures and sessions - not only for the educator but for students as well. The format below provides an outline for organizing lectures and sessions. You are welcome to use it as is or modify it to meet your specific needs. In addition to serving as a valuable resource in advance, having an outline helps with reflecting on how sessions went and considering refinements or modifications.
Session Objectives
Prerequisite / Prior Learning (Readings / Recorded Lectures / Activities)
Anticipatory Set (Warm-up or icebreaker questions to set the tone for the lecture/session)
Session / Lecture Materials (What resources will you use for this session?)
Session Interactivity (What ways will you engage students during the lecture/session?)
End of Session Questions (Parting questions you will pose to your students)
