Reduce first day jitters for yourself by visiting your assigned classroom in the next couple of weeks. Log into the instructor station, practice projecting on the screen, put on and test the microphone, adjust volume if you plan to show video clips, check the lighting and furniture arrangements in the space, practice circulating around the room.
