Low-Tech, High-Reward Icebreaker

The activity linked below, from Skip Downing's On Course Workshop (On Course Workshop), leads teacher and students through a discussion of choices, expectations, and roles for the semester. It can be done as a first-day icebreaker, but it can also be a nice refresher of class rules or a way to discuss roles in depth a couple of weeks into the semester. It offers an eye-opening view of what students expect of professors and where expectations between students and professors may not match up.
