and before you have a cow and assume I am biased in my teaching, that is not the point of my statement.
I write only about how I approach my students.
I do not treat them"objectively." I do not compare them to some arbitrary and thus artificial standard which is not relevant to them.
Insofar as i can, I attempt to treat each as subject in herself, her uniqueness.
In fact, I try to approach all of my fellow human beings that way.
Or to put it another way, in the words of George Fox, I am trying to answer that of God in each person.
Students are persons. Not People - not a collective, even if a collection of individuals.
Oh, and I do believe that in many areas there is an absolute truth or reality, even if what often matters is the perception thereof by individuals.
So criticize me for not being "objective" towards my students.
I proudly claim to be "subjective." And I do not intend to change that.
Peace.
