1) First look at the course description in the catalog; the
same that students see when they select courses.<<<
It's a requirement. They don't have a choice.
That's why I am asking you :)2) Then talk to somebody who was teaching the course.<<<
find a common denominator. Teach what you knows a last resort ask what students want and try to
the best, what they are ready for, and what might be
practically useful to many of them.<<<<
I would think this would be impractical. Where do I even
begin? I have to start teaching on day one. I have to have
a class schedule..if I dont know what I am teaching until I
talk to them...
