I appreciate knowing that an institution has 45 days to respond for requests for student records.  It's nice to know we don't have to feel rushed to provide them the day they are requested. 

Whew!  That section was a rough one.  It had a whole lot of grey area.  If this happens, then this is ok, but this is never ok unless this this and this happen, but when this happens you can never do that, this person can see this but that person can't.....I would need a black and white cheat sheet next to me at all times to memorize the ins and outs of this section.

I learned that notes made by an instructor (sole possession notes), as long as they are kept private and not shared with another party, do not have to be shared with the student.

As with the rest of the continuing education module, this section continued to be though provoking on where "the line" is between appropriate and inappropriate, legal and illegal. 

I found the section on comparing access to success to be very thought provoking.  I think I have often found myself trying to find a solution that will guarantee success, rather than focusing on supplying equal access.  I guess that would put me in the "over-accommodating" category. 

This section continued to provide plenty of information to think about that directly relates to my day-to-day teaching activities.  I feel confident in saying that every class of students I've ever taught has contained multiple examples of the types of students discussed in this section. 

This has been a fascinating course thus far.  As a culinary school we face a lot of unique challenges in accommodating students in a reasonable way.  I am always interested in finding the balance between protecting the student and protecting the school.

Teaching culinary arts, striving to become a better teacher, and thinking about different ways to explain a recipe or a concept have had the wonderful side-effect of helping me become a better cook along the way.  Figuring out how to get your students to understand a dish, or a technique, or a concept forces you to look at things in different ways too.
