Presented in the UAB Center for Teaching and Learning for UAB faculty by CTL Director Amy Chatham, Ph.D.

Description: What happens on the first day in the classroom sets the tone for the whole course. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to welcome the students, focus their attention, take attendance, organize rules and procedures, review the syllabus (the right way), and set your students up for success in what could become the best class they’ve ever taken.
