The first day of class: Setting the tone for learning and engagement from the start

First impressions matter. The start of the semester establishes student habits and attitudes that will last until December. What are practical things you can do to get your students engaged, prepared, and focused on learning from the very first minutes of class? How might you balance the need to convey essential course information with the desire to dig into course material? This workshop will offer both concrete ideas and time to think with creative colleagues about how to have a successful start in your fall classes.

Please RSVP by July 30.
