The first day is obviously as important as the last day. I did a lot of note taking. First impressions can be nearly impossible to reverse or undo, and they often set the tone for the relationship that follows. I certainly value all that was written in this module. First days have a new meaning to me now.
Have students leave feeling comforatble so that they are confident they can get through the class. HAve students get to know eachther and introduce myself an have them do the same.

Inroduce myself by writing my name, course name and number on board. Allow students the same courtesy, and allow them to also talk about their hobbies, or what they enjoy outside of school. Clearly outline the objectives and goals of the course. Offer my knowledge, and expertise on the subject being taught. At the end of each class make sure everyone has a clear understanding of objectives, goals, and allow the autonomy of the students to tell me what I can do different, or better to help make their experience more successful.
being early having each one of them say something about themselves that will help me remember them. I like to know what area of nursing they are considering so can help individualize teaching
Student success doesn't just depend on presentation of material. It depends on making sure that, from day one, students are comfortable and receptive. Getting off on the right foot is vital to creating that condition.
I like the idea of giving students ideas about how to study. I'm sure that I have assumed they know how to study, but I can see how career changers and maybe students who struggled in other school settings could use some tips.
I need to know my students' abilities and base knowledhe so I can adapt my teaching style in order to maximize the learning experience
I need to have an overall "feel" of the class as soon as possible, or maybe in the couple days from the start. Knowing where the students are at (aptitude, interest, and knowledge base), I am better able to adapt my teaching style and other teaching strategies to harness their inherent abilities
Be sure to introduce myself and my dental experiences. Learn my students.
