Hi Carol: I always find it interesting who asks about their grades and who doesn't. But I know most all students wnat to know how they're doing. I try to personalize my interaction with the students at every opportunity. So when I share grades, I also ask how things are going, how I can assist in other ways, or if they need help in some area. I want them to feel I care and that I'm interested in their success. This also helps diminish the (artificial) barrier between student and teacher that may be perceived by students. If I can be natural and approachable, students will be more open to me. Regards, Barry
