The First Day of Class

Chef Educator

A successful first day of class can be a key component of a successful course. You should envision the first day as more than just a time to review the course syllabus. In this episode, Dr. Colin Roche shows you how to turn that first day into an opportunity to establish expectations, set the tone for the class, and to get to know your students through introductions and ice breakers. Community building in the classroom should start on day one!
