Big Firsts, with Tricia Khleif by Behind the Scaffolding published on 2019-01-27T22:43:05Z Genre Learning Comment by User 368264116 Wow, chock full of useful ideas. Some takeaways for me: 1. Consider "exagerating" your teaching persona a bit to engage students in the first class sessions. 2. Try perhaps for "nerdy enthusiasm" -- trying to be "cool" can backfire. 3. Need to balance being directive vs. open-ended. 4. Developing your own idiosyncratic language to talk about writing issuescan help build community in the classoom. Looking forward to more of this stuff. 2019-02-02T00:11:06Z
