A teacher is letting his students to write down on the copybooks the "key terms" of the lesson so they memorize them.
So "Key terms" is a title, then comes the colon ":", then on the next line comes the main terms of the lesson.

Does it go the same for "Auto-dictation" as a title for a paragraph, so it's "Auto dictation"?

Both "autodictation" and "auto-dictation" are in use, as well as "auto dictation", so I'd say it's really your choice.
