"The Course" continues

Part III started last Tuesday with a new coach and my old training partner. This is the Ability To Instruct" section, where we are learning & producing lesson plans for a whole load of skills. I started doing these Plans in my 20-year old method, with all the details.
At the last session we were given 5 skills to complete Plans for, and to learn all the instructional prases for the pupils to be able to carry out the skills.
Apparently the old-fashioned method is old-fashioned, and I should only be writing down key words that will remind me about various phases or questions to ask. Easy ! Done, Sorted, Diagrams created. All I need to do now is type them up so that I can read them under pressure, and then continue with other skills' Plans, so that I can get ahead of the game.
I am sure the requirements and the teaching skills will get hard as we continue through Part III, so my plan is to be ahead whilst I can !
