First Day of Class & Understanding IU Students
Woodburn Hall 120
Professors Claude Cookman (Journalism) and Arlene Diaz (History) will discuss what it is like to teach a diverse classroom of students who may be at different points along the path of emotional and intellectual development. They will also share best practices for helping students become independent and critical thinkers. George Rehrey (Campus Instructional Consulting) will suggest practical ways for starting the semester off on the right foot while taking into consideration what is known about IU students.
