Many instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is @>Ul0&Mf?
good for learning and innovation. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing Q2RO&dL
9
and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual professor is not necessarily O
K2|/y
a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a 3`>nQ4zC
subordinate position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how {,
zg
equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority. 1`l10f qU
Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the 707-iLkt.1
classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructor's role. A professor may jLgx(bMn
have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for -A;4""
the submission of a paper or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor YRs32vVz
may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will &Ez]pKjB
not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors X7{ h/^
have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers. D_-<V,
3t
Students must realize that when a teacher's role changes, they must appropriately 5Q.z#]Lg
adapt their behavior and attitudes. h;`]rK
