The Boring Launch: Spend a minute…

-Referencing the syllabus…
…& dense readings packet (yuck!)

Savor the feeling of…

“Can anyone share their…
NEAR
DEATHEXPERIENCE!?!”
Dramatically interrupt your intro…
…ask:
“My…whaaa?!?”

Don‟t be
unsettled by
moments of
disorientation.(This is the 1st
time they‟ve
had a class
start this way!)

Pick one. Always plenty to choose from.
(Millennials lead exciting lives!)

Just in case…have a „close call‟ of your own ready…
…(your story will still work!)

The semi was headed straight
gunfire erupted
hail of bullets
as my friend
I could feel the rip tide
pulling me out to sea
But—in my 30 class starts, someone always…
…has a good Near Death Experience!

Ask: “What just happened?”Reflect on Lessons Learned:
LESSON #1: To effectively communicate, grab your audience‟s attention…(even when teaching a class!)
LESSON #2: Once you’ve got their attention, hang onto it by delivering compelling content.
LESSON #3: Your chances of success rise if you know your audience!!!

Please share your…
NEAR
RetirementEXPERIENCE!!!
Expanding on knowing one‟s audience…
…we ponder an alternative start to class:
Why is this less effective in most college classrooms?

Q: How did I know…
…Near Death will stimulate students?
A: 18-21-year-olds (hopefully) have lots of life
left to live.
Describing its near loss: ATTENTION GRABBING!

COMMON STATEMENT DURING SEMESTER:
“If you don‟t at least try……to elicit the stimulation of...
…the Near Death Experience story…
…might as well just stay in bed!!!‟
