You beat out dozens (if not hundreds) of applicants and now you must prepare to teach your first course. In this recent post, Dr. Ramon Goings suggests a few ideas on how to prepare, and also highlights several perspectives of colleagues in the field.

There is minutia. Teaching isn't just about the actual instruction of your students—you will probably need a contact in IT.

There is a litany of research that explains the prevalence of negative encounters for faculty of color. Combat it by developing trusted peers.

Lean on previous syllabi for the course or program to get you started. There's no shame in using it as a starting point. Do you have experience teaching? What advice would you give someone who is preparing to teach a course for the first time?
