This link is an article about a professor who went off in class about a students yawn. I think as teachers the digital age means that we have to be even more cautious about who we are and how we treat students. It is one thing for a teacher back in the day to do or say questionable things. Word of mouth might spread some of that, but for the most part it would be under wraps. Today, however, we live in a digital age that simply spreads news quickly. Students will watch our every move as leaders in the classroom and when we say or do things that are out of character, or simply inappropriate, the videos, news, word of these incidents can spread like wildfire. What are we doing to maintain our character?
