Discussion: First Class Meeting

Organization and planning are critical in the teaching profession. As instructors, we only meet each class for the first time once. Discuss the importance of the first day of a course and what instructors should model for their students. What should instructors do to prepare for the first day, and what should actually occur on the first day? How should instructors prepare differently for teaching on campus versus teaching online?
