Thanks for your reply. I just thought it would be a good ice breaker. Thank you for confirming it. I'm going to plan it into my first day as well! Have a great school year.

Three things about me

Thanks for the feedback. I found this to be kind of a fun activity and I think it's appropriate for the age group. I think I'll give it a try and see how it goes. Thanks again.

Thank you for your response, it is very helpful. I hope to be able to use the many pieces that make up my professional career so I can provide my students with the broadest knowledge base I can based on my past experiences. I'm planning on adding a bit of a "sales pitch" to my delivery. Thanks again.

Three things about me

In one of my previous jobs we had an exercise where we had to tell 3 things about ourselves. 2 are true, 1 is not. Other students in the class need to find the item that is not true. Is this a good first day exercise or is it too corporate?

New instructor

I'm a new instructor in the university setting. I have worked professionally in sales and graphic design and am now entering the instructional venue. I'm very excited to get started and was wondering which of my existing skill sets do you think would be most valuable to start: 1) my sales background, or 2) my technical background and why? Thanks.
