Reflect on Limits:<\/em><\/p>\n\n

\n\t
Decide on what you consider to be acceptable or unacceptable classroom behaviour.<\/li>\n\t
Consider how you and your students may differ in what is considered acceptable or unacceptable. <\/li>\n\t
Think about how you can communicate your expectations and ensure that students understand them. <\/li>\n\t
Then you can: \n\t
\n\t\t
create your own list of classroom norms or expectations and present them to the class for their thoughts and have students contribute additional items; or<\/li>\n\t\t

Communicate Expectations:<\/em><\/p>\n\n
\n\t
Share expectations and explain why you hold them. For example, texting might communicate disrespect to you, and you may be concerned about class disruptions.<\/li>\n\t
Create space in class for students to discuss in small groups. Discussion prompts may include:\n\t
\n\t\t
What does a productive learning environment for a tutorial look like?<\/li>\n\t\t
What conditions are needed for students to feel safe participating in class?<\/li>\n\t\t
What is considered acceptable or unacceptable tutorial behaviour?<\/li>\n\t\t

Implement Tutorial Norms, or Ways of Learning Together:<\/em><\/p>\n\n

An example of collaboratively created engagement guidelines might look like the following:<\/p>\n\n
\n\t
\n\t
Everyone has the right to be heard. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
\n\t
Be respectful while still being critical. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
\n\t
No name calling. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
\n\t
One person speaks at a time. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
\n\t
Maintain confidentiality. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
\n\t
Hold yourself and each other to high standards of excellence at all times. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
\n\t
Have the humility to recognize that you do not know everything and that everyone can stand to improve. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n\t
\n\t
Recognize that everyone will start from different bases of knowledge. <\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"},"library":"H5P.AdvancedText 1.1","subContentId":"de0b606b-ab0a-4dde-a154-7c0aa9a256d4","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"}},"title":"Example"}],"hTag":"h2"}
