having students look at materials while lecturing

i often have students have their bpook open to the material im covering...figures and tables put a visual to what im lecturing, i feel students soak in information better that way.

boundaries..i find it hard with students around my age

does anyone else find it difficult at times to establish boudaries. i find that i see my students more than my own family, so i find it difficult to not share personal experieneces and everyday life with them..its a good thing becuase they end up being extememly comfortable and i can relate to them. but the downside is you tend to lose respect and authority.

Student as a person

I belive its important to keep in mind that the student is a person and not just a customer..in a society all about money, its important to remember that they are there for an education, and they paid for it.

referalls

i dont think simply asking the student for a referall is going too far. Pushing the envelope is acceptable without seeming to desperate or coming on too strong.
