You assess the work of your students with the key of a rubric. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of Bloom’s Taxonomy, a dimension of Constructive Alignment, a dimension of Learner Engagement. You’re moving into a land of both criteria and descriptors, of exemplars and performance. You’ve just crossed over into… the Feedback Zone.

Found out you’re a GA? Not sure what to do on the first day? Have no fear, we’ll help you steer – and sort out what to say. In this session, we will go through the ins and outs of making a great first impression, while helping you navigate your students through all the important info you need to impart in the first class note: lesson on limericks not included! The first class is your chance to set the tone for the semester – you will set out your expectations with your students for communication, behaviour in group work, etc. and generally set the atmosphere of the classroom. You will also need to communicate the syllabus or other course materials in a way that will make your students actually sit up and pay attention. Most importantly, the first class is your opportunity to introduce yourself to the class, and they to you and to each other! You will leave this session with useful tips and tricks to engage your students with the course material, syllabus info and each other so that you will go into the first class confident and excited!
