About the Class

A new semester starts and most of us (teachers) would be teaching the same course again. Some of us would have taught the same course more than once. Are you excited about delivering this course again or are you just taking it as yet another semester where the course is to be delivered?

Simple techniques like collaborative syllabus and going beyond "set in stone" syllabus, can help you get started with new vigor, motivation and energy.

I would discuss how you can start afresh while taking the same course every semester. Join me in discussing on this, just before the next semester starts. I look forward to learning from your experience as well.

Good thing I didn''t see these comments before the session as it might have made me nervous... ;-) I did it in my own style, with very limited preparation. "Flying by the seat of my pants," so to speak. Thing is, it was part of what I wanted to communicate: sometimes, it''s better to prepare less and just go with the flow. At any rate, feel free to contact me if you want to discuss those issues or if you want to give me any kind of feedback about the session. Hope you got your money''s worth.

I totally agree with both Vikrama and my friend Nellie, whom I thank for joining the Teachers Development Network. Although you cannot swim in the same river twice, it would be interesting to inject new flavor into ongoing practices, to avoid the feeling that one has done it all before.

I agree, Vikram. This topic is very important for teachers who need to show enthusiasm and excitement about a course they may have given over and over again.

This is an exciting topic and something that I have wanted to discuss ever since my days as a teacher and now a trainer in a corporate environment. The time might not be right for me but I would for sure watch the recording and contribute through comments.
