Classroom Discipline

Daniel, policing the classroom is one of the harder parts of being an instructor. The good thing I see is you have your own experiences you can call upon which will allow you to control with some level of compassion and that from my perspective gives you a great advantage. Few students actually enjoy the process involved with learning but they do it because it is necessary to learn and achieve their goal of graduating and getting into a career. We as instructors are in a similar situation when we are asked to be outside our comfort zones with all the things that make teaching an actual job versus just talking about our passions and the subject matters we enjoy. It does get easier over time from my experience and just as we expect our students to stretch outside of their comfort zones, so will we as instructors need to stretch from time to time. Thanks for sharing and great post.
