Increase the enthusiasm of the students by showing enthusiasm yourself: towards the subject, towards the students, and towards the act of teaching. This is of course generally applicable, but especially important in lectures, as the teacher plays a central role in these. Motivating the students to learn is one of the essential functions of lectures, and showing enthusiasm is a very important motivator. [1]
