I teach a culinary class one of my class end assighnments is to write in a daily journal. I believe this is a form of debriefing it gives them a chance to write about what they saw did right, wrong and or how they would do it different.

I find sharing my own hurdles in the education system and how I overcame them helps relieve the anxiety of the student to approach me with there own hurdles. It I believe also motivates them, showing them they can overcome and reach there goals with hard work.

I usually have small classes because I am at the end of the program so this is a luxury for me but i give them my personal and professional life story and ask that they do the same I find although painfull for some this helps them open up a great deal and I personaly know each and every student which helps me to be a more evective teacher.
