Step 1. Find out about your students
Who Are My Students?
- MAUI can help you learn more about your students.
- Your Department chair and other faculty members who have previously taught the course are an excellent source of information about the students who enroll in this course and strategies for teaching them.
Will your students be relying on your course as a pre-requisite, or to prepare them for a standardized exam?
What is the nature of the class? How many students are first-generation college students? Non-majors? Upper-level? Is the course a requirement or an elective?
Jot down your ideas and questions.
