Description\Summary
This book shows you the many tools and strategies you can employ to get your classes off to a positive, fruitful start - right from the very first day. You'll learn how to make your expectations clear, create a welcoming classroom atmosphere, motivate your students for the long haul, and keep your students involved through the inevitable "mid-semester blahs" and on to the end of the term. You'll also explore how to deal with an increasingly common and disturbing classroom problem - student incivility - so that all of your students can learn in an inclusive, safe environment that is free from frustration distractions.
