Many instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is 4iX-( ir,
good for learning and innovation. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing =
1|"-
and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual professor is not necessarily %_)zWl
N
a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a tai Vk4
subordinate position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how )c<6Sfp^B
equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority. H
oy7RC&
Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the ]#eh&jw
classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructor's role. A professor may 8e:vWgQpL
have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for ?[1SiJT
the submission of a paper or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor 2W$lQ;iO
may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will WStnzVe
not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors bg7n
have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers. @z,*K_AKr
Students must realize that when a teacher's role changes, they must appropriately wyQb5n2`;~
adapt their behavior and attitudes. fEqC] *s
