Teaching groups of students

Becoming an agricultural teacher is a thrill but a fear all in one. You have no idea what types of students you will have or how each individual learns to be most effective to them. Knowing the seven group teaching techniques which include: lecture, discussion, demonstrations, field trips, role-play, resource people, and cooperative learning, will help me as a teacher to better understand how students learn and how to incorporation as many styles as possible.

I know being that being an agricultural teacher means having to teach almost anything and everything. Just to be clear I do not know everything but a group teaching technique that will help me on this matter is resource people. When it comes to a subject I am not familiar with or have little experience for example, wildlife, I can call up the game commission and have them come in and help me teach a lesson on furs and tracking.
