<p>As a new instructor remember that your management sytle can mean the difference between success and frustration. ED113 does a good job of explaining how different instructors attempt to manage their classrooms. One can be a lecturer who gets through all of the material without any class interaction or fun for that matter. Another style that ED113 refers to is the buddy. The buddy has low expectations and is more worried about being everyones friend than the actual material. The ideal is called the guide. The guide has rapport with the students but also stays on task in a relaxed fun environment. The guide encourages discussions and interactions all the while maintaining a sense of order and ensuring that a lot of learning is taking place.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
