#7 and #8 can be summarized as "Teaching is the right combination of presentation, participation, and feedback". Lecture is a valuable way to do presentation, but you need to integrate participatory activities such as clickers, worksheets, ANYTHING that gets the student to actively work with the material. And of course, that won't be enough for non-didactic people, so you should plan for how students will get timely feedback. Clickers are one mechanism that let you give immediate feedback, but there are many other approaches.
