Hi all

Students are not customer. A customer-oriented instructor follows certain guidelines such as listen attentively, treats each student fairly and equally by creating a close interpersonal relationship with a student to minimize any negative effects.

 

I never really like to refer to sudents as customers, simply because of the thoughts that come with that. We tend to cater to instead of educate and correct behavior. 

I disagree with this teaching, they are our customers and they are paying for knowledge and developement.  "Big me little you" is a bad way to show the responsibilites we have been given.

 

  • Communication is key in the learning process.  

our students are not our customers. 

students are  customers

students are our customers as well as individuals seeking instruction. we must provide insturction in ways that allow them to meet the professsional standards while letting them feel satisfied as a customer

 

 Students as customers requires teachers to listen,learn student's learninbg style, teat students fairly and  establish a good rapport with students.

Models of students as customers derived from buisness culture are not appropriate for students.  Instead, education needs a customer focus in order to meet the needs of students for quality education experience

I do not think students should be considered customers.  They should be considered an investment on their return. It's their investment and we should be the ones ( institution) that should help them achieve their goals.

Students may view themselves as customers spending a large amount of money for a piece of paper.  While preferences and learning styles should be taken into account, instructors know what the students needs are more often than the students realize. By only listening to the students needs and preferences, we are depriving them of an experience that prepares them for their future careers.  Respect, appreciation, and guidance are the underlying themes that both types of "customers" require for a successful relationship. 

 

Students should not be considered customers in the traditional business sense.  But if we are doing our jobs, and treating the student as a human and working with them toward thier educational goals, then we will be succeeding by the traditional business sense standard because the student that is served well by our programs will advocate for us and draw in potential students.

 

Students are customers in the sense that they deserve respect and to be the priority in our daily communications with them. We go the extra mile to ensure we communicate clearly and concisely and assist them by providing a high-level exceptional customer service experience in all our interactions with each student. 

Students should not be viewed as a typical customer.

I veiw my students as nurses without a license, yet. With respect, compassion and honesty.

The educational systems should not see the customer as one who pays money for goods and services.  The institution should take nto account student needs and preferences.

This module emphasizes the concept of student-centered learning.  The instructor's role is to maximize each student's learning journey - to assist each student in constructing knowledge.  To do that, an instructor needs to be engaged, to listen, to communicate,  to show genuine concern, and to treat students equitably. 

Students should not be viewed as customers.  They should be viewed as investments that require dedication from teachers and administrators. 

Students are not considered customers.  

 

The objective is to deliver a skill and give meaning/value to the material they are learning. Not feel they are just income to the school. I can see how this must be of high priority in a school for profit.
