In whatever class I teach, I do not sit down except when I am instructing using a computer during my lecture. I will still get up and walk around periodically to check the progress of the class. I find that I can manage my classroom much better while I am up circulating the classroom. It gives me an opportunity to be aware of what the students are working on, to talk with them individually, and I have found that students will ask me questions if I am involved in the class.
