This session will provide strategies for getting your course off to a welcoming and productive start, including: 

  • what to do in the first week of classes 
  • how to present the course objectives and syllabus to your students 
  • how to initiate and sustain excitement about your discipline 
  • how to motivate and prepare your students for the requirements and responsibilities of the course.

Participants will have the opportunity to generate a plan for their first class and will be provided a Worksheet in advance of the session to use throughout the workshop. Group activities will be integrated throughout to allow opportunities to share ideas and first class strategies that promote a welcoming class environment and can set your students up for success.

This is a part of CTSI's Tune into Teaching Workshop Series
