The correct answer is D. All of these.
A teacher’s objective for better interaction with students should be to equitably distribute response time, maintain proximity to students, and affirm or correct student performance.
Equitable distribution of response time means that all students have an equal opportunity to participate in class discussions and activities. This can be done by calling on students randomly, using a “talking stick,” or having students write down their questions or comments before class.
Proximity to students means that the teacher is physically close to students. This allows the teacher to monitor student behavior, provide individual attention, and give students feedback.
Affirming or correcting student performance means that the teacher provides positive reinforcement for students who are doing well and offers constructive feedback to students who need improvement. This helps students to feel supported and motivated to learn.
All of these factors are important for creating a positive and productive learning environment. By equitably distributing response time, maintaining proximity to students, and affirming or correcting student performance, teachers can create a classroom where all students feel valued and respected.
