evaluating a teaching demo

For those who have served on a search committee for a TT job, what criteria do you use to evaluate a candidate’s teaching demo in class? What does a strong teaching demo look like to you? Thank you.

I look for good design (appropriate length, not rushed, material flows/fits together), how likely it is to engage students (energy of the presentation, activities that help students work with or figure out parts of the content), and actual engagement with the audience (flexibility of delivery, responsiveness to points raised by the audience / questions asked, etc.). 

Then there’s also the actual content coverage and how well it matches the intended level of the class and the instructions given, which is secondary to the above but important to show the candidate has a good idea of the students they would be teaching.
