Should Teachers Friend Their Students? | Powerful Learning Practice - 1 views

  •  
    Post arguing that teachers should keep a professional distance from their students. I think I profoundly disagree with this post, not around the act of staying distant but about the power differential built into his argument. Acting ethically and modelling good and realistic practice in life is more fundamental to a useful educational stance. This post refers I think to non-adults and emotional transference is something that teachers need to be conscious of. I'm not arguing that teachers should friend all their pupils online, rather that his reasons for this are flawed.

    Atlantic article on SM in HE. Some good stuff about attitudes and the failure of the academy to maintain pedagogical control. Examples tho' seem to come from courses teaching 'about' SM, not 'through' SM.
