First-day materials

Instructors, you will find the following important first-day materials in a black milk crate on the counter next to the microwave and coffeemaker. (For those of you who remember the fish tank, the milk crate is where the fish tank used to be.) Please pick up enough materials for your class(es). Pick up extras if needed. Return any unneeded forms for others to use. And please let me know whenever we are running low on any materials!
-- Background Information forms (beige). Have your students complete these; return them to me as soon as possible.
-- BE Policies and Procedures handout (pink). Be sure each student has a copy of this important document, and go over it in detail in class.
-- Attendance forms. You should turn in attendance to me each week. This form is provided for you, but if you have another form you prefer (electronic, for example), please feel free to use it.

By the end of this week, two more items will be available for your use. I’ll let you know when they are back from Duplication.
-- Demographic survey form (blue). Have your students complete these; return them to me as soon as possible.
-- Class syllabus (yellow). Be sure each student has a copy of the syllabus. NOTE: The syllabus is provided as a guideline of what we would like to see covered in that class. If the class as a whole is having difficulty in a certain area, please use your best judgment in regard to spending more time on a certain topic, even if it means not . I strongly suggest using quizzes (written and/or verbal) to be sure your students are understanding the material presented.
