Mr. Phelps regularly uses some class meeting time to ask for students' input about ways that all members of the class, himself included, can improve the way things are working. This practice is
 
  a. a good one, because it communicates clear respect for student input.
  b. a good one, because it allows Mr. Phelps to gauge which students do and do not like his teaching style.
  c. a poor one, because it reduces Mr. Phelps's authority with the students if they are allowed to make suggestions about his behavior.
  d. a poor one, because instructional time is being sacrificed for the conversation.

  c. remind the student that while you appreciate that commitment, it is vague, and work with him to identify some specific actions/strategies for change.
  d. begin the problem solving process again, deepening the conversation you have in which the student describes the problematic behavior.
