Last Friday UW announced the return (for all but a few large classes) of in-person instruction on Monday Feb 7. Here are some suggestions for making the return as painless as possible, while still supporting student learning.
Establish classroom norms. It would be a good idea to take a bit of time to introduce yourself and make your expectations clear about classroom participation (raise hands? call out answers?) Many students have never been in a university classroom, and you have the chance to shape the culture of yours.
