  Case: Cursing
In my high school internship, I encountered many students cursing while inside of the classroom. Sometimes, even the teachers would curse. I do not believe that there is a classroom rule about this issue, and the teachers do not seem to correct students when they speak inappropriately. How should I address their language?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would suggest you talk to your university supervisor on the subject. If the teacher is doing it then they are clearly not setting a good example for their students, therefore the students think it is okay. In my opinion I would suggest that you have appropriate language, and remind the students that they should too.

Comments: I agree with this solution. If you have talked to the CT about the students language and nothing changes and they themselves continue to curse, I would then go to my university supervisor and inform them on the situation. It is important to follow the chain of command and go to your supervisor instead of the school administration. Also, as you stated, it is important to hold yourself to a higher standard and not participate in the fowl language and remind students that they should do the same.

Comments: I think it's great to get advice on the topic though I don't think it's okay to speak to the students as if you are their teacher. It's their classroom.
