Comment on Shane Apperley's post: It's nice to have a explaination of the different types of tests and how to construct them.

It is important to use various tools to transmit information to students, with this we can maintain the interest and curiosity of students to see what new things they will learn and handle tomorrow.

The first class, although it may not seem like it, is very important, it allows you the first contact with your students, share things about yourself and also know a little more about them and their preferences, qualities and expectations.
