Many instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is k1h>8z.Tg
good for learning and innovation. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing ' 5F3,/r
and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual professor is not necessarily Dwx^hNh
a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a AJJa<c+j
subordinate position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how c04;2gR
equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority. 9-`P\/
Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the
#s}&
classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructor's role. A professor may e$t$,3~
have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for !yQ%^g`
the submission of a paper or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor (\zxiK
may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will Xu
s TU
not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors ?cvV~&$gc
have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers. t(.jJ>|+*
Students must realize that when a teacher's role changes, they must appropriately j7>a^W
adapt their behavior and attitudes. N~)RR {$w
