I believe it is imperative to give students real examples of sanitation practices in lab on a constant basis. It may seem like common sense, but once everyone is in this loud and hot environment, common sense can be lost. I like to reinforce the importance of teamwork, leadership, and ethical responsibility during each class. I also find it very helpful to have family meal or a team meeting at the end of each day to discuss positives and areas of improvement. I let my students know that improvement is something we consistently strive for each and every day, even if you have done something multiple times. Broaden the senses and elevate the experience.
