FiB Chapter 2 QR

Fires in the Bathroom Chapter 2 QR

Throughout both chapters the book stressed the importance of a questionnaire as an effective tool for educators to learn about their students. What surprised me was the feedback from Lauraliz on page 20, where she said she enjoyed it when the teacher fills out the questionnaire as well. I wholeheartedly agreed with her.
By participating in such an activity you are building that level of comfort that will allow for better learning and more student engagement in the classroom. It also enables the teacher to build rapport with students without forcing relationships. This is in turn makes you seem more trustworthy, fair, and approachable; especially if your responses are funny and allow students to laugh at you. This seems like it would greatly releive any tension or anxiety that the students may have.
