Hopefully, you can recall a teacher\u00a0who encouraged and inspired you and perhaps played a role in shaping the person\u00a0you are today. College professors are also interested in positively affecting students' lives by exposing them to new ideas and perspectives, by challenging their assumptions, and by getting to know them in and out of class.\r\n\r\nIn this section, we look at ways in which you can cultivate rich and rewarding relationships with your instructors because solid student-faculty relationships can be foundational to a successful college experience.\r\n<h1>Office Hours<\/h1>\r\nOne way to get to know your professors better is to visit their office hours, which are specific times professors set aside for students to visit their offices or to meet over Zoom. Students choose to attend office hours for a variety of reasons, such as asking questions, clarifying concepts, seeking feedback, inquiring about grades, or procuring advice on a variety of academic issues. You can find your professors' office hours and preferred method of meeting on their course information sheets. Professors on campus will post a phase sheet outside their office door. Here is an example:\r\n<div class=\"textbox exercises\">\r\n<h3>Office Hour Phase Sheet<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3144 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2932\/2018\/01\/30220323\/1-3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"816\" height=\"1056\" \/>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h1>Instructors and Professors<\/h1>\r\nThe terms <em>instructor<\/em> and <em>professor<\/em> are often used interchangeably because both denote someone who teaches college students. The distinction between them is minor, having to do with promotions and years in rank, not qualifications to teach in their fields of study.\r\n\r\nSome of your professors are adjunct instructors, which means they work part-time at the college, while others are full-time faculty members who have additional responsibilities to the institution beyond teaching; regardless of adjunct or full-time status, all professors are appropriately qualified and credentialed to work at the college. It is often the case that adjunct faculty work full-time jobs outside the college and can provide students with real-time, real-world knowledge because they are practicing experts in their fields.\r\n<h1>Communication Methods<\/h1>\r\nCollege students are sometimes surprised to discover that instructors enjoy getting to know students. The human dimension of college really matters, and as a student you are an important part of your instructor\u2019s world. Most instructors are happy to work with you during their office hours or talk a few minutes after class. They are also willing to respond to digital messages, talk on the phone, or engage in online discussion forums, course wikis, or personal journals. These are some of the many methods of communication you and your instructors can use.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1225\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2932\/2018\/01\/12153155\/ContactProfessorEarly_Infographic05.png\" alt=\"Contact your professor early in the semester infographic.\" width=\"387\" height=\"387\" \/>\r\n<h1>Benefits of Communicating with Instructors<\/h1>\r\nCommunicating with instructors can help you feel more comfortable in college and more connected to the college culture. Students who communicate with their instructors are less likely to become dispirited\u00a0and drop out.\r\n\r\nCommunicating with instructors is also a valuable way to learn about an academic field or a career. Maybe you don\u2019t know for sure what you want to major in or what people with a degree in your major actually do after college. Most instructors will share information and insights with you on these topics.\r\n\r\nYou may also need a reference or a letter of recommendation for a job or internship application. Getting to know some of your instructors puts you in an ideal position to ask for a letter of recommendation or a reference later on.\r\n\r\nBecause instructors are often well-connected within their field, they may know of a job, internship, or research opportunity\u00a0that you\u00a0wouldn't otherwise know\u00a0about. An instructor who knows you is a valuable part of your network. Networking is important for future job searches and other opportunities. In fact, most jobs are found through networking, not through classified ads or online job postings.\r\n\r\nBeing \u201ceducated\u201d affects how one thinks, understands society and the world, and responds to problems and new situations. Much of this learning occurs outside of the formal class. Communicating with your instructors can be among your most meaningful experiences in college.\r\n<h1>Guidelines for Communicating with Instructors<\/h1>\r\nGetting along with instructors and communicating well begins with a good attitude. As experts in their field, instructors deserve respect. Remember a college education is a collaborative process that works best when students and instructors communicate freely in an exchange of ideas, information, and perspectives. So while it pays to respect your instructors, there is no need to fear them. As you get to know them better, you\u2019ll learn their personalities and find appropriate ways to talk to them.\r\n\r\nBelow\u00a0are some guidelines for communicating with your instructors:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Prepare<\/strong> before meeting with the instructor. To get the most out of the time you are speaking with your professor, go over your notes on readings and lectures and write down your specific questions. You\u2019ll feel more comfortable, and the instructor will appreciate your organization.\u00a0Often times, clarification of course content, assignments, or grades only takes a few minutes. See your professor early, so you can stay on track with the course.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Introduce yourself.<\/strong> Especially near the beginning of the term, don\u2019t assume that your instructor has learned everyone\u2019s name yet. Unless the instructor has already asked you to address him or her as \u201cDr. ____,\u201d \u201cMs. _____,\u201d or Mr. _______,\u201d or something similar, it\u2019s appropriate to say \u201cProfessor _______.\u201d<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Respect the instructor\u2019s time<\/strong>. Be sure to attend your scheduled meeting on time. Try not to cancel meetings, but f you you have to, make sure you send an email well in advance.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Be professional<\/strong>. Come to office hours with your questions ready, and don\u2019t wear sunglasses or earphones or check your cell phone for messages. Be prepared to accept constructive criticism in a professional way.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Use office hours.<\/strong>\u00a0Office hours are a great way to have one on one time with your professor. When thinking about whether or not to bring something up in class, consider if your question is something the entire class would benefit from hearing. If your question or comment is pertains to only you, try to speak with your professor individually. For example, if you need to miss class for a family emergency or you want to discuss your grade, see your professor before class, after class, or during office hours. If that is not possible, send an email.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Know your professors want you to be successful.<\/strong>\u00a0If you are feeling hesitant about approaching your professor, remember that you are in college to learn, and you have valuable thoughts. If you are wondering about something, chances are, other classmates are wondering too, so ask questions often and early.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nCheck out this interactive quiz about communicating with your instructors outside of class:\r\n\r\n[embed]https:\/\/www.oppia.org\/embed\/exploration\/hggOmiJ7bNGF[\/embed]\r\n<div class=\"textbox examples\">\r\n<h3>EMailing Your Professor<\/h3>\r\n<div>Watch the following video for what<strong> not<\/strong> to do when sending an email to your instructor.<\/div>\r\n<div><\/div>\r\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/zSNc8F9tqzY\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Using the information from the text about how to communicate with instructors and what you learned not to do based on the video, create a checklist of what is needed in an effective email to instructors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>","rendered":"<div class=\"textbox learning-objectives\">\n<h3>Questions for THOUGHT and Discussion<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>What have your interactions with your instructors been like so far?<\/li>\n<li>How does it make you feel to think about visiting your professor&#8217;s office?
