Tour of Classroom, or Lab

How important is it to give your students a tour of their classroom or lab on the first day. What factors would lead you to take the time to accomplish this on day one.

In the culinary or any other vocational field a lab tour is essential because there is typically a lot of equipment which may be new to students and it is necessary to let students know how to use everything, where items are stored, and how to help keep everything organized.

Hi Marco,
I think it is very important because I want to raise the level of motivation for my students. By having them tour the site where they will be learning and working for the next few weeks I am hooking them into my subject area and the potential for them within the setting.
