The Engineering and Computing Education Core (ECEC) Fall Excellence in Teaching Series returns Thursday, Aug. 12 via Zoom with a noon-1 p.m. session – on utilizing the first day of classes to its fullest potential, led by Robert Vavala, ECEC instructional designer. For details or to register, click the link below.
The first day of a new semester provides the opportunity for students to form a lasting impression about the course subject matter, get to know their instructor, and make connections with their peers. Traditionally, the first class session is not utilized to its full potential, often focusing on the syllabus, course policies, and expectations of behavior.
In this session, we will share research-based suggestions to help you ignite students' interest in the course content, provide a good first impression of you as their instructor, and get to know their classmates. The workshop will include activities that will allow you to make the most of your time with students on the first day of class.
