Whether you're a first-year teacher or a veteran, this session will help you organize your courses, develop online content, and select the tools you'll need to engage your students.
Note: When I talked about openness and giving students choices on the first day, I described how I summarize and document the conversation (here is a link to last year's version). I forgot to mention that I ask students to comment to that post with their observations. You can check these out via the link, or just have a look at a sample in the screen shot below. The students' comments create several positive outcomes: 1) they're writing on the first day of class; 2) they're engaging and choosing to "buy in" to the course; 3) they're speaking up for themselves, practicing agency, and gaining experience in being visible - in a small way, this practice is an introduction to Lincoln's "government by the people, for the people."
