<p>I teach at a post secondary school where you would think that you do not have to be a babysitter. We have a large number of students that are severely challenged by organizational skills that makes it very hard for them to be successfull. It is a delicate balance between being helpful and baysitting. I find that a solid syllabus at the begining and reinforcement of that is most helpful in keeping them focused. Trying to stay on track is important but you must be willing to be flexible because every class is different in make up.</p>
