I happened to glance to my left and two students who were a couple feet away were all over each other. I have zero experience on how to handle this type of situation and I didn't want to embarrass myself in front of students, so I chose to ignore the situation. Other students were around these students and the moment was awkward. The students did notice my presence, however they didn't know who I was; just that I had noticed them and probably looked as if I was irked. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) You shouldn't feel embarrassed to address the situation. The students are the ones who will end up feeling embarrassed once it has been addressed. You don't want other students to think that this type of behavior is acceptable, so it's something that cannot be overlooked or ignored.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I agree that the students will feel more embarrassed than the teacher and should realize that this behavior is unacceptable on the school grounds. I also agree that if you ignore the students other students might think it is acceptable. Rated On: March 1, 2015 11:57 pm Rated By: NaHuVa
