The document outlines six steps to creating a successful lesson plan: 1) outline learning objectives, 2) develop an introduction, 3) plan specific learning activities, 4) plan to check for understanding, 5) develop a conclusion and preview, and 6) create a realistic timeline. It emphasizes identifying objectives, engaging students, checking comprehension, summarizing key points, and building flexibility into the timeline. The goal is to design a lesson plan that effectively facilitates learning through a variety of activities and assessments.

Lesson Planning - An Overview of the ImportanceBeth Sockman
This is a basic presentation of the purpose of lesson planning. The Third slides uses the "Jain Story" - Story: A Jain version of the story:
Six blind men were asked to determine what an elephant looked like by feeling different parts of the elephant's body.
The blind man who feels a leg says the elephant is like a pillar; the one who feels the tail says the elephant is like a rope; the one who feels the trunk says the elephant is like a tree branch; the one who feels the ear says the elephant is like a hand fan; the one who feels the belly says the elephant is like a wall; and the one who feels the tusk says the elephant is like a solid pipe.
A wise man explains to them:
"All of you are right. The reason every one of you is telling it differently is because each one of you touched the different part of the elephant. So, actually the elephant has all the features you mentioned."[1]

Remember - “lesson planning can be like feeling parts of the elephant. If you do not understand the whole, you only understand the part - the the particular lesson plan…”

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

A successful lesson plan addresses and
integrates these three key components:
Steps for Preparing a Lesson Plan
Outline
3. A lesson plan is the instructor’s road map of what students need to learn and
how it will be done effectively during the class time. Before you plan your
lesson, you will first need to identify the learning objectives for the class
meeting. Then, you can design appropriate learning activities and develop
strategies to obtain feedback on student learning.
Introduction
4. Objectives for student learning
Teaching/learning activities
Strategies to check student understanding
A successful lesson plan addresses and
integrates these three key components:
5. Below are six steps to guide you when you create
your first lesson plans. Each step is accompanied
by a set of questions meant to prompt reflection
and aid you in designing your teaching and learning
activities.
Steps for Preparing a Lesson Plan
6. The first step is to determine what you want students to learn and be able to
do at the end of class. To help you specify your objectives for student
learning, answer the following questions:
What is the topic of the lesson?
What do I want students to learn?
What do I want them to understand and be able to do at the end of class?
What do I want them to take away from this particular lesson?
Once you outline the learning objectives for the class meeting, rank them in
terms of their importance. This step will prepare you for managing class time
and accomplishing the more important learning objectives in case you are
pressed for time. Consider the following questions:
What are the most important concepts, ideas, or skills I want students to be
able to grasp and apply?
Why are they important?
If I ran out of time, which ones could not be omitted?
And conversely, which ones could I skip if pressed for time?
(1) Outline learning objectives
7. Now that you have your learning objectives in order of their importance, design the specific
activities you will use to get students to understand and apply what they have learned.
Because you will have a diverse body of students with different academic and personal
experiences, they may already be familiar with the topic. That is why you might start with a
question or activity to gauge students’ knowledge of the subject or possibly, their
preconceived notions about it. For example, you can take a simple poll: “How many of you
have heard of X? Raise your hand if you have.” You can also gather background information
from your students prior to class by sending students an electronic survey or asking them to
write comments on index cards. This additional information can help shape your introduction,
learning activities, etc. When you have an idea of the students’ familiarity with the topic, you
will also have a sense of what to focus on.
(2) Develop the introduction
8. Develop a creative introduction to the topic to stimulate
interest and encourage thinking. You can use a variety of
approaches to engage students (e.g., personal anecdote,
historical event, thought-provoking dilemma, real-world
example, short video clip, practical application, probing
question, etc.). Consider the following questions when
planning your introduction:
How will I check whether students know anything about the
topic or have any preconceived notions about it?
What are some commonly held ideas (or possibly
misconceptions) about this topic that students might be
familiar with or might espouse?
What will I do to introduce the topic?
(2) Develop the introduction
9. Prepare several different ways of explaining the material (real-life examples, analogies,
visuals, etc.) to catch the attention of more students and appeal to different learning
styles. As you plan your examples and activities, estimate how much time you will spend
on each. Build in time for extended explanation or discussion, but also be prepared to
move on quickly to different applications or problems, and to identify strategies that
check for understanding
(3) Plan the specific learning activities
(the main body of the lesson)
10. These questions would help you design the learning activities
you will use:
What will I do to explain the topic?
What will I do to illustrate the topic in a different way?
How can I engage students in the topic?
What are some relevant real-life examples, analogies, or
situations that can help students understand the topic?
What will students need to do to help them understand the
topic better?
(3) Plan the specific learning activities
(the main body of the lesson)
11. Now that you have explained the topic and illustrated it with different examples, you
need to check for student understanding – how will you know that students are
learning? Think about specific questions you can ask students in order to check for
understanding, write them down, and then paraphrase them so that you are prepared
to ask the questions in different ways. Try to predict the answers your questions will
generate. Decide on whether you want students to respond orally or in writing
(4) Plan to check for understanding
12. You can look at Strategies to Extend Student Thinking,
http://www.crlt.umich.edu/gsis/P4_4.php to help you generate
some ideas and you can also ask yourself these questions:
What questions will I ask students to check for
understanding?
What will I have students do to demonstrate that they are
following?
Going back to my list of learning objectives, what activity
can I have students do to check whether each of those has
been accomplished?
(4) Plan to check for understanding
13. An important strategy that will also help you with time management is to anticipate
students’ questions. When planning your lesson, decide what kinds of questions will be
productive for discussion and what questions might sidetrack the class. Think about and
decide on the balance between covering content (accomplishing your learning
objectives) and ensuring that students understand.
(4) Plan to check for understanding
14. Go over the material covered in class by summarizing the main points of the lesson. You
can do this in a number of ways: you can state the main points yourself (“Today we
talked about…”), you can ask a student to help you summarize them, or you can even
ask all students to write down on a piece of paper what they think were the main points
of the lesson. You can review the students’ answers to gauge their understanding of the
topic and then explain anything unclear the following class. Conclude the lesson not only
by summarizing the main points, but also by previewing the next lesson. How does the
topic relate to the one that’s coming? This preview will spur students’ interest and help
them connect the different ideas within a larger context.
(5) Develop a conclusion and a preview
15. GSIs know how easy it is to run out of time and not cover all of the many points they had
planned to cover. A list of ten learning objectives is not realistic, so narrow down your list
to the two or three key concepts, ideas, or skills you want students to learn. Instructors
also agree that they often need to adjust their lesson plan during class depending on
what the students need. Your list of prioritized learning objectives will help you make
decisions on the spot and adjust your lesson plan as needed. Having additional
examples or alternative activities will also allow you to be flexible. A realistic timeline will
reflect your flexibility and readiness to adapt to the specific classroom environment.
(6) Create a realistic timeline
16. Here are some strategies for creating a realistic timeline:
Estimate how much time each of the activities will take,
then plan some extra time for each
When you prepare your lesson plan, next to each activity
indicate how much time you expect it will take
Plan a few minutes at the end of class to answer any
remaining questions and to sum up key points
Plan an extra activity or discussion question in case you
have time left
Be flexible – be ready to adjust your lesson plan to
students’ needs and focus on what seems to be more
productive rather than sticking to your original plan
(6) Create a realistic timeline
