This is an interesting video, and I appreciate the suggestions. I recognize these behaviors in students, however I believe they are just that - behaviors, not types of students. I'm not comfortable with labeling students as if these are character traits; I also believe that labeling such as this may prevent an instructor from noticing changes to behavior or more nuanced responses, and may actually reinforce behaviors by creating negative expectations. As a parent and instructor I have seen this type of labeling be harmful and hurtful to students. It would be interesting to think of ways to rephrase this with a focus on the behavior.
Thank you. Excellent tips here that will help me respond better in future courses.

Hello All,
This is an excellent video.

This presentation was spot-on! I cannot even tell you how many of these I encounter on a weekly basis. The most challenging student is perhaps the "I need an A" student. I feel like they are always questioning every point loss----even tenths of a point. These students seem to demand much more time and makes it challenging to balance everything.
