Setting the Tone for Semester-Long Student Participation by Changing up the First Day of Class

Workshop/Training | Sparkshops

Do you sometimes find students reluctant to participate in your course in spite of your best efforts and charming personality? Come attend this Sparkshop to learn a way to start the semester in a way that sets a positive tone for your course and engenders student buy-in from the beginning by collaboratively establishing classroom norms on the first day of class. (I know and I get it, class time is a precious commodity. In my experience, this practice has paid off in spades throughout the semester.)
